Hi,
I conduct audits annually and want to highlight upcoming audit dates that I need to begin working on scheduling. I am working with the last audit date and need 4 months notice. I have tried to setup conditional formatting but get everything but what I want. Column E lists the last audit date: 8/10/11 (needs to highlight) 5/26/11 (needs to highlight) 4/6/12 11/2/11 Can anyone help?? Thanks! Laurie Last edited by LMDeWitt : May 22nd 12 at 04:46 PM.

Easy enough to set up, but I need to know which version of Excel you're using as it differs slightly between them. S. |

The 8 months is for a year (between audits) minus the 4 months' notice. Hope this helps. |
