From when? If you mean when the computer clock date changes to another day
and another time? Use formatconditional formatting, formula is

=NOW()=$B$2

select format

where B2 holds a date and a time like 08/28/06 21:30

if you are only interested when the day changes to another day use TODAY()
instead of NOW() and change B2 to just a date
