Hi Jim,
For that we use Conditional Formatting.
First select cells A5:H5. Go to Conditional Formatting found on the Start ribbon and choose to add a rule. Then choose to use a formula (bottom option). Enter the following formula:
=$C5="won"
and apply the green color.
Repeat for the next formula:
=$C5="declined"
and apply the red color.
With A5:H5 still selected, drag the range down as far as you want to apply it to those rows as well.
Best regards,
Trowa
