Default Color rows based on a cell value

Hi Paul

Conditional formatting will do the job.

with 'Days to expiration' in column A, select row 1 and goto conditional
formatting Formula is:

=AND($A1<=60,$A1<"")

Format as desired, and use the format painter to format the desired range.

Hopes this helps

Hello -
Windows XP
Excel 2003

I want to color a row based on a cell value.
Specifically, I have about 100 rows where I keep licensing data.
I have a column entitled 'DAYS TO EXPIRATION' and another 'DAYS TO
RENEWAL'
If the days to expiration or renewal are 60 or less, then I want the
whole row's font to change to red from 'automatic' (black).
I can change the color of the cell using conditional formatting.
The problem is some of the rows contain no expiration - the days to
expiration are blank because the license doesn't expire or must be
renewed.
So, I need either VBA or a condition formatting snippet to:
Check the column(s) for numbers, if there is a number, and if the
number is 60 or less (<60), then change the row's font color to red.
Thanks,
Paul
