Default Change the colour of a row depending on the contents of a date cell

Hi,

I've got a spreadsheet which is full of various bits of information,
spread accross a number of columns, for example:

Name | workstream | due date | comments |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | A | yesterday | |
2 | B | today |
|
3 | C | tomorrow | |


I'd like to put some logic in the sheet that notices that the first row
is overdue - and so colours the whole of that row to red to make it
stand out....

I can probably record a macro to sort this out, but was wondering if
there was some way to put the logic in the sheet, so that I wouldn't
have to explicitly run a macro - it would just "get done" (whenever the
sheet is opened)... is this possible somehow?


Thanks in advance,

Chris
