    Conditional Formatting based upon meeting 2 criteria

    My mind has gone blank and I can't remember how I did something. I need to highlight entire rows in a sheet when column B contains "Smith" and column I contains "02". Can someone help? Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Use a formula along the lines of

    =AND($B1="Smith",$I1="02")

    note the position of the dollar sign to indicate formatting of the whole row.
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1

    Format According to Formula when true:

    =AND($B1 = "Smith", $I1 = 2)

    apply it to the whole area you want formatted.
