Conditional Formatting Dates

[Mudbutt]

How do I write a conditional formatting formula to make an entire row a color if the date in column A is a Sunday?

Maybe this:

<b>Excel 2007</b><table cellpadding="2.5px" rules="all" style=";background-color: #FFFFFF;border: 1px solid;border-collapse: collapse; border-color: #A6AAB6"><colgroup><col width="25px" style="background-color: #E0E0F0" /><col /><col /><col /></colgroup><thead><tr style=" background-color: #E0E0F0;text-align: center;color: #161120"><th></th><th>A</th><th>B</th><th>C</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr ><td style="color: #161120;text-align: center;">1</td><td style="text-align: right;;">Monday, August 01, 2011</td><td style="text-align: right;;"></td><td style="text-align: center;background-color: #C5D9F1;;">CF -

Do I highlight the entire sheet to create the formula?

No need. You can highlight a number of rows you plan to use.

In my example, I selected only the range 1:21.
