Default How do I set conditional formatting to interface with other cells?

Use CF formulae of

=AND(B1="",A1<TODAY()-7) 'red
=AND(B1="",A1<'TODAY()) 'yellow
=AND(B1="",A1TODAY()) 'green

Hi, I have a problem at work; I am trying to use conditional formatting to
highlight a date. If the date is between today and seven days ago

highlight
yellow, before that green and after that red. This is all set up easy,

the
problem is that I want it to reflect also when a date is entered in

another
cell, if the date is seven days overdue it will be red but if the receipt
date is entered in another cell with a date that is still in range of

another
color, I want the cell to reflect it.

I hope anybody can help me and if you need to see the spreadsheet just

email
me and I'll send it to you just in case I didn't make myself clear.

Thanks in advance for any replies.
