    Hi there thanks for the swift response.

    it doesnt seem to work.

    This is what i am doing, highlighting column Q
    Selecting - conditional format
    then highlight cells rule
    if equal too
    and then entering the above formula

    I presume im doing this wrong.

    Sorry to be a pain.

    Thanks
