Forgive me if this is answered elsewhere, but I am trying to use Excel 2007's conditional formatting to fill an entire row with color if one cell in that row contains specific text. (I will need about 10 colors.)
For example, I'd want the rows colored differently based on department
First Last Dept. Ext.
Joe Smith Accounting X4827
Ann Gable Purchasing X4888
Karla Barnett Operations X4000
Dave Brown Finance X2000
I am asking if there is an IF statement with a lookup table or if I can write a new rule in Excel 2007's conditional formatting on the Ribbon. (I don't see an option to highlight an entire row based on the contents of one cell in that row. If so, can you tell me the exact rule or statement I would need to write? Thank you much!
