Default highlight dates when it arrives on a spreadsheet

highlights that date when it arrives (maybe in another color).


Hi Stepahnie,

select the range with your dates, then from menu Format, Conditional
Formatting, under Condition 1 select Formula is than in the text box type a
formula like this:

=A2=TODAY()

than choose the format you prefer.

I used A2 because I assume that your dates are in column A starting from A2,
so you have to change.

translating from the Italian version of Excel...)

Hope I helped you.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Ciao
