conditional formatting?

I posted something similar to this some time ago but never got an answer and it 'fell off' the board. Here's hoping for a solution this time please.

1. Formula please to highlight the cell in column H that is equal to or nearest to J1 IF the cell in the same row in column J equals 7


2. Formula to highlight the cell in column B if the cell on the same row in column H is highlighted as a result of the above.
