    Drop Down List & Conditional Formatting

    Dear All

    how are you

    Looking for help to solve Conditional Formatting function with drop down list.

    When i change the Text of Drop down list ( cell : E2). color of Rows ( B2 : B8) is changing according to conditional formatting as i given. but color is changing in all rows not only in the row the that contain specific text shows in drop down list.

    i like to make conditional formatting

    change the only color of cells that contains only the specific text which i selected in drop down list.

    Eg :

    if i select drop down list ( E2) as Apple.... the select the rows which contain " Apple and only change the color of rows with GREEN that contains " Apple "

    if it is Mango,.... the select the rows which contain " Mango and only change the color of rows with BLUE that contains " Apple "


    File attached.

    Re: Drop Down List & Conditional Formatting

    Condition 1
    =AND(B2=$E$2,B2=$H$7)

    Condition 2
    =AND(B2=$E$2,B2=$H$6)

    Condition 3
    =AND(B2=$E$2,B2=$H$5)
    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.
