Darren, Would it work to apply CF to each cell in the row? The test for each would be to look at the same cell. I haven't done much CF in Excel - maybe absolute references in the CF expression would allow you to copy once and paste into the CF expression field for the other cells in the row.

If it says 'closed' or 'passed' I want the whole row to be grey font, italic font etc to visually indicate 'it is finished' with In the past I have applied cond formatting to whole columns that apply cond formatting to individual cells depending on their value but this is the other way about. IE a cell changing the formatting for the whole row Many thanks in advance Darren -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
