I have four different things that produce the same color. basically I have
four different styles of terminations and I want the cell to turn red when it
sees them. I know how to do it individually but is it possible to do this in
one section?

Hi Darrell,

Choose "Formula" option, while applying conditional formattting and apply
the following logic:-

IF(or(Style1,style2,style3,style4),"True","False")

True -> will apply your conditional formatting on the respective cells.

Thanks

Jarek this works great on one cell but the issue is that I have a range of
E13:E112 that is using it and by using this formula then it covers everything
red when I select the one.

Further Help Please
