    Highlight Data based on Date

    Hello:

    Please refer to attached sheet.
    I have dated data as shown.
    I want to highlight the data for the date in Cell A1.
    In attached sheet, since A1=2/9/2014, then i would like to highlight cell H2:H15 in yellow.

    Please help with this by using Conditional formating.

    Thanks

    Riz

    select b2 to h15
    conditional formating
    new rule
    use a formula option
    put
    =B$2=$A$1
    pick a fill colour
    once done you just need to copy the format to wherever you need it
