Hello, I have a spreadsheet with 3 different product types. Product A, Product B and Combo. Customers can have multiple lines of the same or different products. (i.e Customer can have 5 entries of Product A with 2 entries of Combo for example)

I want to highlight all the customers who have Combo product or have a Combo along with Product A in yellow. I have currently been doing this manually by filtering the data to only show Combo type , highlighting all the combo products yellow, and then removing the filter. I then scan the list manually and look for the highlighted combo lines and highlight all the customer's products.

Is there a formula or filter I can use for this situation? I was thinking along the lines of a formula that can recognize a yellow highlight, and highlight all rows with the same name or customer address.

Example of how my spreadsheet looks

NameAddressProduct TypeCost
Adam1 Main StreetProduct A15
Adam1 Main StreetProduct B20
Steve1 Avenue RdCombo15
Kate2 Highway StCombo15
Kate2 Highway StProduct A20
Kate2 Highway StProduct A20
Kate2 Highway StProduct A15

So in this instance I would want every row for Kate to be highlighted Yellow along with Steve.

Thanks!

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
