Hi,
I have 7000 rows, 5 columns.
I need to highlight the entire row if the value in column 5 is X
conditional formatting is limited to 3. I may have more than 10 criterion. i.e. X, Y, Z, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, etc etc
Please help. Thanks

You could download this free Add-in from Bob Phillips - it gives you up to 30 conditional formats:

Hope this helps.

This is a case where you will then need to turn to VBA coding to help you out in this process such as the following:
With Thisworkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1") For I = lngFRW to lngLRW Step 1 Select Case VBA.UCase(.Range("X" & CStr(I)).Text) Case "A" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 1 Case "B" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 2 Case "C" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Case "D" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 4 Case "E" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 5 . . . . Case "X" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 30 Case "Y" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 31 Case "Z" .Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 32 End Select Next I End With
For the color index codes, you may want to refer to:
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/colors.htm#palette
You will need to scroll on down until you see the different colors and it's in order from 1 to 56. This does assume the default colors and that none of the colors has been changed within the color tab of the Options dialog box.

Try following steps, this does not require any VBA.
1. Make a table for results of all your possible conditions 2. in column 1 write expected results eg. A to J, and colum 2 write 1 against each 3. Give this table a name eg Table 4. Write a formula in your column 6, =VLOOKUP(E2,table,2,FALSE) E2 is your column 5 5. If the result is according to your possible conditions, it will return 1 in cell F2 6. Select cells A2:E2 and just one conditional format by selecting the Formula =$F2=1 choose your highlighting colour in the condition
This will work. Regards. Aqib Rizvi

Sorry, Gary, I can't help with this, and as Bob hasn't posted anything for a couple of days I think he may have gone on holiday. I am sure he would be grateful if you could contact him (via the xldynamic site) to explain the problem you are having, and he'll get round to answering you when he returns.

When you say you tried to open it do you mean you just double-clicked on it after unzipping?
Best to just place it in your Office\Library folder then open Excel and go to Tools>Add-ins and check CFPlus.
Then you may have further problems when xld Tools appears on your worksheeet menu bar.
When you select "Launch CFPlus" you see message
"Error while preparing the workbook."
This is how we resolved another person's problem with CFPlus.
First of all, go to Tools>Options>SecurityMacro Security>Advanced>Trusted Publishers.
Check "trust all installed add-ins and templates" and "trust access to visual basic project".
OK out then click on Xld Tools and "Launch CFPlus"
You will get the error message. Click "Yes" to answer the question.
CFPlus should launch.

Isn't is just one condition with a formula of
=ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1,{"X","Y","Z","A","B","C","D","E","F","G"},0))
