    conditional formatting on a entire row

    Hi,

    By fullfiling the condition on a cell, is it possible to highlight the entire row related to that cell ?

    Thanks
    Mani

    Select the entire Column and in the cf put something like:

    =if($D$2<>"",1,0) and it should work

    Select rows 1:whatever, making A1 the active cell
    Go to Format > Conditional Formatting
    Specify Condition 1 as "Formula Is" using the expression, =$A1=......,
    Specify formatting.
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1

    Hi.

    Thanks to both of you for trying for me.
    I am not clear with your reply.
    I have enclosed the test file.
    Basically, I need to highlight the entire row, if the lead time ( Column X )
    is 45 days.

    Great, if you could help me...

    Regards
    Mani

    Re: conditional formatting on a entire row

    Select rows 2:28

    Go to Format > Contitional Formatting

    Where it says "Condition 1" select "Formula is" and enter

    =$X2=45

    into the box, then select a format
