Getting in Touch
with Your Inner PC
A few training tips to help in the day-to-day struggle with your most frequently used tool—your workstation.
For those of us who are visually oriented . . . Scenario: You are staring at a worksheet filled with data and you want to quickly, and easily,
see all entries that conform to a particular set of criteria without searching until you are blue in the face. Conditional Formatting to the
rescue! While there are many conditional formatting options available, we will focus on the “equal to” option that will highlight just the data
that is equal to the desired criteria. For this example, let’s assume that you want to find all items ordered on January 2, 2009.
• Highlight the row that contains the desired data .

• Notice that the data criteria you entered in step has now become
highlighted in red ».

• From the Home tab on the ribbon, click on the Conditional Formatting
icon to expand the menu ·.• In the list that appears,
select Highlight Cells Rules ¸, then select Equal To... ¹
in the next list, and a new pop-up box will open.

To remove the conditional formatting:
• Repeat steps · and ¸ from above.
• Then expand the Clear Rules option ¼.
• Now select Clear Rules from Selected Cells ½.

• Enter the desired search criteria in the first field º, then click OK.

NOTE: “Clearing Rules” permanently removes all conditional formatting
from the selected area. If new formatting is desired, you
will need to re-establish the conditional criteria from scratch.
