    Need help with Conditionnal Formatting

    Good afternoon forum,

    I would need your knowledge and expertise on this one.

    I have created a Conditionnal Formatting for column E (E2:E33), which highlight a cell (red or yellow) when the key words "Approval only", "nothing" & "Invoice only" is selected from a dropdown list.

    But now, I would like to have the cells in column A to automaticly turn bold if the cell on the same row is highlighted red or yellow.

    I have attached the file for example.CDT Formatting.xlsx

    Thanks in advance

    Dan

    Select A2:A100 (or so)
    Conditional Formatting>New Rule>Use Formula

    =OR(LEFT($E2, SEARCH( " ", $E2)-1) ="Approval", LEFT($E2, SEARCH( " ", $E2)-1) = "Nothing", LEFT($E2, SEARCH( " ", $E2)-1) ="Invoice")
    Format to Bold
    Does that work for you?
