    Conditional Formatting (Highlighting a whole row when a condition is met in one cell)

    Is there a way to highlight a whole row when a condition is met in one cell? If so what is the formula that needs to be used and could I apply it through conditional formatting? If you look at my spreadsheet I already used conditional formatting to highlight certain cells according to the number but I need it to highlight the whole row the same color. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Berna11' solution will high-light the row up to Z (its never a good idea to CF an entire row or column tho, its very recourse-intensive)

    an alternative is to just high-light the part of the row you want to change color and use the following dynamic formula

    =INDIRECT("column-with-condition-to-test"&ROW())="cell-with-condition-to-test")
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
