conditional formatting text

I want to format cells which START WITH the letter "W", regardless of what
else is in the cell.

In the conditional format formula, put something like this

=LEFT(A1,1)="W"

Replace A1 with the cell address of interest.

Thank you Peo.

I entered it in conditional formatting but it didn't work. I tried both the
'cell value' and 'formula' options. How can I apply it?
