Would like a product listing in a cell(from a drop down box) to turn red when a x is placed in different cell. The x(which is red) identities the material as a hazardous material and want the description to be red also

Yeah, what you need is conditional formatting. With it you can highlight cells and color them, depending on their values. The if statement won't format your data, but only result in some text or some calculation appearing based upon your data.
