Conditional Formatting based on a range of values

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to highlight rows in a table based on values of cells in another table in another worksheet (sheet1). Both tables contain zip codes, however, the table in sheet1 divides the zip codes by office. I want to highlight zip codes of each office with a different color. this the table I want to apply the conditional formatting to, values starts in A4 and B4

 

 

 This the table in Sheet1 where zip codes are divided by office. Data starts in A2, B2, C2, and D2 Thanks in advance for all you comments and assistance.

      Yes, I'm pretty sure that the way you did it could be changed to highlight the whole row. Can please share with me how to apply it to my tables. 🙂

        I changed the rule for conditional formatting from

        =MATCH(A4,sheet2!$A$2:$A$8,0)

        to

        =MATCH($A4,sheet2!$A$2:$A$8,0)

         

        The "applies to" range is =$A$4:$B$35

        If you want to highlight e.g. columns A to H then change the "applies to" range to

        =$A$4:$H$35
