Conditional Formatting based on other group of cells












0















Not sure if this can be done.



Is there a way to use conditional formatting such that if the second column is marked with an x as seen in the column below, the sheet will auto append a defined text to the first column?



E.g.



Column A | Column B
....@gmail.com | x
....@gmail.com |
....@gmail.com | x
....@gmail.com |


to



Column A | Column B
....@gmail.com(some text) | x
....@gmail.com |
....@gmail.com(some text) | x
....@gmail.com |

    I believe you can do it in Excel but not in Google sheets
