Default formatting of row depending on cell value

First of all, you can't have more than one date in a cell unless you enter
them as text.

Are you saying A1 will have a varying date?

Do you want to format the various dates a different color?

If so, you make a rule for each Date.

If you want to format various dates to same color you could use the OR
function.

=OR($A1=DATEVALUE("12/25/2009"),$A1=DATEVALUE("12/31/2009"),$A1=DATEVALUE("1/7/2010"))

up to 7 dates.

Addendum, I got it working.


However, an additional question, how do I combine multiple dates in
the same formula?


I meant as following:


+ DATEVALUE("12/31/2009") + etcetcetc


Apologies for being unclear.


Unclear again, my mistake.
However, you provided me with the solution in #2 so I'm now sorted,
thanks for all the effort.
