Default Can I get Excel to automatically BOLD dates 30d before expiration?

Try conditional formatting

(Steps in xl2003)
Assuming dates running in A1 down (real dates are presumed)
Select col A (A1 active)
Click Format Conditional Formatting
Under Condition 1,
Formula Is: =AND(A1<"",A1-TODAY()<=30)
Format Font tab Bold OK
OK out

I am new to Excel (obviously), and I have created a simple worksheet that

to expire within 30 days. Is there a formula for that purpose?

Thanks...
