    You can do that with conditional formatting.
    go to Home > Conditional Formatting > Highlight Cells Rules > More Rules > Use a formula to determine which cells to format
    Then you put something like =IF($B$7<>"",1,0) , Like I did on the attached sheet, and It's done! (the 1 on formula means that the cell will be formattted).

    If I type in cell B6, the word I typed in Cell B7 with be hilighted
