Default Automtacally change entry based on value in column.

Hi

I've searched the group and found 'Validation and filters with sub
scrolls' but didn't see a solution. Using Excel 2003 I have a column
with a List selection in, and a column next to it with a formula that
returns true or false (basically this determines if todays date, is a
date in another column + 30 days). If this is TRUE, i wish to set the
value to the relevant cell in the column to Expired.

I'm not sure how I do this or if it needs to be done on an Open
Worksheet event. Can anyone help please?

i.e

A B (to be hidden)
1 Status Validation
2 Open
3 Closed FALSE
4 Testing
5 Initial
6 Testing
7 Open TRUE
8 Open TRUE
9 Open FALSE
10 Open

So as soon as a value turns to TRUE then for example, row 7 and 8
should automatically become Expired.

Is this possible please?

Cheers

Rich
