Try a formula of say

=MONTH(A1)=MONTH(TODAY())

assuming the date is in A1.

If you span years, then use

=AND(YEAR(A1)=YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A1)=MONTH(TODAY( )))

I have a question that I home y'all may be able to help me with: I am
trying
to use Conditional Formating for some dates. What I want to do is have
only
certain dates to be in bold and older ones not to be. ie., if I am
entering
dates for June on a spreadsheet for the month of June, I just want the
dates
for June of 2006 to be in bold and not the others. I have done value
ranges
(equal to 6/1/06 to 6/30/06) but I don't want to always be doing this with
each month. Thanks!
