Default Time Stamp

This works great. The only problem is that it is turning my empty cells
red as well. How do I avoid this?

And do you really mean you had to use

=TODAY-A120

because that is just wrong!

I got this to work for the date but not the time. Is there a way to get
it to consider time as well. For example, need it to distinguish
between 8:20am and 8:30am. I also had to remove the brackets to get it
to work. What did I do wrong?

Use conditional formatting with a formula of

=TODAY()-A120

and select a pattern colour of red.

I want to create a column where the user enters a date and time.I that
exceeds a certain number of days when compared to the current date and
time it will turn the cell red. Is this possible?

Thank you!
