Range("F6:F38").Select
Selection.FormatConditions.Delete
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:= _
"=$F$1 = ""PH"""
Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior.Pattern = xlGrid
End Sub

I am not very clever when it come to writing macros ,

Step 1 - but what I am trying to achieve is that if I move to a new cell Eg Cell j6, then it would highligt J6:J38 instead of always going back to Range("F6:F38").Select.

Step 2 - this has to apply to 1st cell in that range not "=$F$1 = ""PH"""
"=$J$1 = ""PH"""

so everytime I move a col it needs to re-adjust the formula to the currenct col number :confused:

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Try:
Code:
With Intersect(ActiveCell.EntireColumn, Rows("6:38"))
    .FormatConditions.Delete
    .FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=" & Cells(1, ActiveCell.Column).Address & "=""PH"""
    .FormatConditions(1).Interior.Pattern = xlGrid
End With
