Default Conditional Formatting by Date (Month)

That won't work in Excel versions 2003 and earlier. You can't directly use
functions that are in the ATP.

You'd have to use a defined name.

InsertNameDefine
Name: TargetDate
Refers to: =EOMONTH(TODAY(),1)

Then, as the formatting formula:

=F2<=TargetDate

Make sure the Analysis ToolPak Add-in is activated.

Assuming you're starting in F2
Format - Conditional Format.
Formula is:
=F2<=EOMONTH(TODAY(),1)

I want to format a Date Column

If Column F is less than any date from today + 1month

Meaning today being 2/9/09 anything in F that is less than 31/10/09

Any guidance please?
