onditional Formating - Question

[Jay]

If I want to conditionally format a whole row, depending on the contents
of just one cell in that row, can this be done?

So, let's say I have the range A1:M100

I want each individual row (A to M) to be conditionally formatted if
the value in the M cell of that row is <0.95, or >1.05 (2 different
conditions & formats)

Is this possible? Ideally without VBA, as I'm wanting to pass the
technique onto staff whose Excel knowledge, is, shall we say, limited.

Amy advice greatly appreciated.

Select all of the rows 1:100, goto CF, change Condition 1 To Formula Is, and
add a formula of =$M1<0.95, and set the format, add another condition,
change again to Formula Is and a formula of =$M1>1.05.

Many thanks for the help, Bob.

This has opened my eyes somewhat to what can be done with conditional
formatting, and helped me incorporate some OR & AND criteria into my
conditions.(And absoluting the column but not the row is something that
just didn't occur to me but I can't think why

Most appreciated
