    Conditional Formatting Rule Triggered by 1 Specific Cell

    Hey everyone - I'm hoping that this is something that can be done.

    I would like to have cells in a specific column highlighted via conditional formatting rules ONLY IF another cell has a specific word in it.

    IE:

    Highlight all cells in column A that are <100 IF cell B1 says "pickles". If B1 doesn't have pickles in it, then no cells are lighted in Column A.

    I'm drawing a blank on this! Thank you!

    Hi whoisdane,
    with your numbers in column A and the magic word in B1, try the rule using a formula:
    =AND(A1<100,$B$1="pickles")
