    Post Conditional formatting based on other cell value

    Hello,

    I've already tried couple formulas and conditional formatting but without success.

    I need a method to read column A and D and based on present or absent highlight the names in column H

    Attaching excel file for reference.

    Thanks in advance! :D

    Green rule:

    =INDEX($D$2:$D$36,MATCH($H2,$A$2:$A$37,0))="Present"

    Orange rule:

    =INDEX($D$2:$D$36,MATCH($H2,$A$2:$A$37,0))="Absent"

    Apply both rules to: =$H$2:$H$36
