Default Can Excel automatically highlight dates in the next week?

Hi,

lets assume we have a return date in A1 and when you get it back you put
something In b1

Select a1 and then

Format|Conditional format
Formula is
=AND(A1<"",B1="",A1-TODAY()<=7)
pick a colour
OK

A1 will now change colour when it is seven day or less to the return date
and stay that way until you book it back in in B1

Use the format painter to paint this into other cells

need to be returned soon. Is this possible?
