How to create Conditional Formats that "grow" with copy/fill down.

A

AliceNXLand

I would like to set up 1 conditional format that will grow as I copy & paste.
All I've been able to do is copy the same over & over. I have tried to
"paste special - format", but it didn't work. Example: Cell value is: equal
to, $F$8, then Font is White. I would like to grow the "$F$8" as I copy &
paste. Thanks for ANY help.

Try a formula like

=A1=$F$8:F8

Thanks Bob, but, I guess what I DIDN'T say that I should have is: I want the
format to look at the $F$8's Previous Cell and if it's equal, then make that
cell White. Then I want to copy that and paste down so it will look at
$F$9's Previous Cell next time, etc. I don't understand what your formula
will accomplish.... sorry. Please help me understand. Thanks.
