I am having trouble with conditional formatting and am hoping someone could help.

Goal:
If FN24, FN25, FN26 ect returns ERROR then I would like columns D & E of that corresponding row to turn red.

EXAMPLE: FN24 = NO ERROR D24 & E24 = NO CHANGE IN CURRENT CELL COLOR --- FN25 = ERROR D25 & E25 = CHANGE CELL COLOR TO RED --- FN26 = NO ERROR D26 & E26 = NO CHANGE IN CURRENT CELL COLOR

The rows that I would be using is 24-1123

I tried using conditional formatting =ISERROR(FN24:FN1123) Applied to cells D24:E1123, but it did not work.
 

Excel Facts

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
Try
Excel Formula:
=ISERROR(FN24)

Solution
Try
Excel Formula:
=ISERROR(FN24)

Ahhh! That was so simple and worked.

For future, how would I modify to change only 1 cell (D21) if anything in the range F24:FN1123 was an error?

How about
Excel Formula:
=SUM(--(ISERROR(FN24:FN1123)))
