Default conditional indirect with data range

You have to be careful about the order of conditional formats. I am
not sure why a date 14 year out would not be greater than 2. You can
narrow down the problem by checking whether the value in column k in
that row, e.g. 5, is evaluated as being greater than 2 with a formula
like inany cell

=k52

If that evalautes to False, then the problem is in the data. If it is
true, then the problem is probably somewhere in the condition logic.

got it. I had to switch my conditions so that greater than 2 was first and
greater than 1 was second. No one more problem....One of my dates is 14
years out and it is being recognized as 1 year...thus red and not bold. any
suggestions???

It seems like you just need two Conditions for your format:


Condtion 1 Formula is =$k12 format is Bold and Red
Condition 2 Formula is =$k11 format is Red


Apply this to all columns in the relevant rows. I don't think you
need the indirect.


Good luck.

I am trying to set up a conditional formula to look at a value in row "K"
then highlight the entire row. The catch is that I want it to highlight in
red if the value is between "1 years, 0 months, 0 days" and "2 years, 0
months, 0 days" and I want it to be bold red if the value is greater than "2
years, 0 months, 0 days" My current formula is =INDIRECT("K"&ROW())"1
