You can use (non-VBA) conditional formatting for this

If your Status column was in column C then - having selected all the rows in the area of interest - you can use rules such as this to format the entire row based on the column C entries

=$C1="REJECTED" and pick Red
=$C1="WIP" and pick Orange etc

Change your column reference to suit

{NB: Change your text case if necessary}
