    Conditional Formatting formula if cell has a specific Name?

    So for a project I have a column where the cells have the name "Score". Now I need a conditional formatting formula that I can apply to the whole sheet.

    Something like highlight cell if(Score<69.5). So I'll apply this to the whole sheet but it will only do the less than function on that one column that has cells named Score.

    No that didn't work. To be clear I want to highlight that have the name "Score" and a value of less that 69.5.

    Is there some way to check the Name of a cell? Like A1.Name()? So I could do if(and(A1.name()="Score",A1<69.5))

    (I realize A1.name() isn't how things work in Excel but I have a programming background so that's the only way I know to convey what I'm trying to accomplish to you)
