Create a formulate that determines if the crew working meets the minimum manning requirements.?

I have 2 crews, each with 3 different specialties. Although we may operate with 5 people per crew, we need at least 3 people to fill each unique position. IE: Manager, Cook, Waiter are 3 unique positions. My calendar has a single column (Column A) with all the names listed, Column B their specialty, and Column C-Z days of the week. Above their names, reading across the days, I have the 3 minimum manning positions. I would like the corresponding cell above that day to change color to whether the crew that day meets all 3 specialties. What formula would I use in excel?

    You do know that you would use Conditional Formatting (CF), right?

    Knowing nothing else about how the cells are filled, you could just use COUNTA in the CF formula to test whether there are at least three filled cells.
