I have a problem in excel with conditional formatting.

I created a rule for the column D6:D107

Conditional formatting for area:

=$D$6:$D$107

Rule:

=AND(E6<>"x";F6<>"x";G6<>"x";H6<>"x";I6<>"x")

When I set x to E6 then the conditional formatting take place in E6 as well. When I set x to G6 then the conditional formatting will not be set in G6.

I tried to remove $ from area

=D6:D107

but during saving the rule, excel is setting it back automatically to absolut area

=$D$6:$D$107

What can I do that the conditional formatting only takes place in area D6:D107? How can I force excel to use only relativ area?
