    Question Conditional Formatting using formula needed for the following problem

    Hello,
    I have a sheet same as the attached excel file; I need to apply conditional formatting to it.
    Can u please tell me the steps in excel how to apply conditional formatting for this data using a formula.


    My Problem is:
    In the excel sheet,

    If Column A is not equal to “ENTRY “then values in the following columns should be displayed in WHITE .The columns are:
    1. User id
    2. Approver id
    3. Period
    4. Date that user input entry
    5. Effective date of entry

    I.e. column A with values “GRRLINES” and “lines”, the values in the above columns mentioned should b in WHITE


    If column A is equal to “ENTRY” then those values should be in BLACK in the same above columns mentioned

    Note:
    1. Here we can give a range in top range corner of the excel sheet
    2. We can apply the formula

    Can u please help me with the steps to apply the formula as soon as possible. Please help me in this problem

    Select the entire Column (L:O) use this formula:

    Where:
    *Row>1 skips the header row in all cases
    *$A1>"" skips any row if the cell in column A is blank
    $A1<>"Entry" formats the cells in the row if the column A cell is not "Entry"
