    Please check attached Excel file for reference.

    If in option table value of days blank then there should be highlight in Item Table days column.

    In Conditional Formatting, I used this formula to format column B (select the cells is column B first) then chose the formatting.

    Re: Conditional Formatting

    Can't you just do this?

    Select B3

    Conditional Formatting
    New Rule
    Use a formula to determine...

    =ISNUMBER(VLOOKUP(A3,A$13:B$20,2,0))
    format as required

    Use Format painter to copy to other cells

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
