Hi Tom, I tried that but it shades cells that contain the text only. &nbsp;i need to shade other cells in the same row and not the cells trhat contain the text. &nbsp;<br>For example<br>cell E6 contains the word building so shade cell L6 purple. &nbsp; I dont want to shade cell E6. &nbsp;Only L6.&nbsp;
</div>


<div>
so basically highlight every cell in Column L &nbsp;based on the criteria for column E.&nbsp;
</div>


<div>
Oops, my mistake. Not at a computer at the moment. Thinking IF statement.
