Excel - Conditional formatting for an entire row
Issue
I'm trying to set up a conditional formatting based on the TEXT value of a cell and I want the row to change color if the particular cell has a value = YES or NO
How do I go about setting that up?
Solution
Select the rows and apply the conditional formatting as
Like in example below I want each row in the sheet to turn use conditional formatting if in the corresponding value in B column of that row is "YES"
So I selected all the cells, and went to the conditional formatting and applied this formula
=$B1="YES"
And change the color to red
