I have a spreadsheet that has promotion eligible dates for about 15 people. I
would like to have the background of the date change to the following colors
for the following circumstances.

At 60 days before the date I need the date to change to yellow to notify to
start processing paperwork.

If the date has passed I need it to turn red.

I can not figure out the correct formula for the cell to do both formats.

Thanks
