In Office2003 (you don't specify the version, so I'm presuming) you do the
following:

Select FORMAT..CONDITIONAL FORMATTING.
Select FORMULA IS instead of CELL VALUE IS in the first drop-down.
type as formula (e.g.) "=(B5=true)".
Click the FORMAT button, and under PATTERNS TAB, select the back-ground
colour you want.
Click OK & Bingo.

good luck.

You could use Conditional Formatting.
By "selected" do you mean "yes" is typed into the cell?
If you data is in A2:D15, select A2:D15.
Choose Conditional Formatting from the Format menu.
Change to Formula is and type =$A2="yes" and set your format.
