    Conditional Format - Highlight Month Column Based on Cell value

    Hi,

    I have a user defined filed which the user enters a month in cell C5.

    I would like the data tables to be highlighted if the month matches the value in C5.

    In the example the reporting month is May and so the May columns of the data tables are highlighted.

    Can anyone help me do this please?

    Paul
