Hi ram1000!

Try the following formula:

=IF(TODAY()-A8=180,"Overdue","")

You must decide on whether it's 180 or =180

Or you could use a conditional format on the cell to highlight it:

Format Conditional Formatting
Formula Is:
Use the formula:
=(TODAY()-A1)=180
Format select highlighting to taste
OK
OK

I am new to this forum and a poor Excel user. I need to create a
tickler to inform me when a specific (180) number of days passes a
date
in a cell. The starting date will be different in each consecutive
cell of a column but the 180 days is constant. I did a search and I
think I found the information I need, but I cannot decipher it to my
specific equation since I am a poor Excel user.

Thanks
