Hi

I have a spreadsheet where A1 is =TODAY() and column H has various dates in it. I have a conditional format set up so that if the value in column H is less than or equal to A1 (todays date) is colours the date (in column H) in red. When this cells text colour turns red, I would also like the entire row which the date is on to turn red as there is lots of info in columns A to G.

Many Thanks in advance,

- EToA
 
You'll have to select columns B through G and apply a Conditional Formatting formula the same way you applied the Conditional Formatting formula to the cell in column H.

The pirate replies, "Arrrrr! It's driving me nuts!
 
in the conditional format for b2:g2 change the "cell value is" to "Foormula is" and enter =$A$1>$H$1 then set the format
