    Question Conditional Formatting - Highlighting lines after text is entred

    I have a condifional format below that highlights the row when text is entred into the cells specified.

    HTML Code: 
    What i was hoping for to go along with this is a new formular thats the same process of highlighting the row but when 'Yes' is entred into cell G5, is this possable?

    If you need anything explaining, please let me know!

    Regards,

    Hi

    Do you mean to keep the formula that you use and add, one more condition(=G5-"Yes")??

    Yes. I think you can do it. First Condition is $G$5="Yes"

    Second condition= Your formula.
