    Colouring cells on a text value

    Evening,

    I am looking to colour the columns B,C,D,E,F,G if the value in Column D is Andromeda - and I'll do this for the whole sheet.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks

    Go to Home tab, Conditional Formatting|New Rule

    Select use a formula to determine which cells to format and enter formula

    =$D1="Andromeda"
