CONDITIONAL FORMAT BASED ON 2 CELLS

Guest

Even to me this seems like it should be simple but I'm not able to make it
work:

Given A6:L6, I would like B6 through L6 (independent of each other) to be
shaded red IF A6 contains any value AND the 2nd cell is blank. If A6 is
blank OR second cell contains any value then no shading.

Use an IF((isblank),1,0) Using conditional formatting 1 = Red
However, conditional formatting refers to a value in its current cell. A1 =
0 and B1 = 1, c1 is blank. Even though B1 has a value of 1, C1 will not be
RED as its cell value is blank.
