Conditional formatting question

[Sam Weber]

Greetings,

Is there any possible way to do conditional formatting
like this:

If cell value F* is filled with date, then format the
*whole* corresponding row into a grey color.

Currently, I can only see a way to do one cell a different
color if it's filled, and not the whole row including that
cell.

Regards,
Sam

Select the whole row and then apply the conditional formatting using 'formula
is' rather than 'cell value is'.

Select the whole row and then apply the conditional formatting using 'formula
is' rather than 'cell value is'.

AND use $ sign in front of the column letter but not in front of the row.
The reason is that each cell that is to be colored references the
needed C.F. formula(s).
