Format ROW automatically


I used conditional formatting to change the fill color of cells with dates before 31/08/15. But, I wanted to format the whole row, not a single cell.

Here are my settings in Conditional formatting.

Kindly suggest tweaks and workarounds, I have searched lots of formulas, but none fits to copy the format to the others cells/row.


Solution

  • Jeeped's formula will work, just remember to change the range in the 'Applies to' box to include all the columns in your row:

    =AND($O2>0, $O2<DATE(2015, 8, 31))
    

    Conditional formatting rules manager / Applies to:

    =$A$2:$O$899
