try using the following formula for you conditional formating rule
=MOD(A$1,12)=0

Yeah , I've been trying that already, but somehow it doesn't work
make sure you highlight the entire row first, with A1 as the first selected value, then you should be good. unless by chance your values are actualy Date values instead of just numbers, in which case we would need to make a change to the formula as so:
=MOD(A$1-DATE(2012,1,1)+1,12)=0
The cell's are formatted as general, I tried formatting the cell as number but I had the same problem. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Here's a video of what I'm doing, maybe you can figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you very much for your help !
Hi
Your problem is in 0:30 of this film (you have pasted the formula with the empty space " " on the end (You have copied this directly from forum with it)). Type it by hand or copy in proper way.
regards
Didn't work, wrote it myself by hand. I hate this excel (2010), why do they have to screw everything up. Maybe I'll go back to 2007.Originally Posted by tom1977
have a look at the attached file, it should help you with this
Thanks very very much DGagnon, that did it !! It was a semi colon not a comma between A$1 and 12 :D !
The correct formula is =MOD(A$1;12)=0
Again, thank you very much !
ah yes, that is a regional setting, in canada/us we always use comma, where as i think alot of Europian countries use semi-colon. you will probably find that most solutions you find here will have a comma, and you can replace them with Semi Colon to make it work for you.
Good luck!
