Date Query
I have a spreadsheet where we input a date when we had first communication
with a potential parent/student. I want the cell to change colors when 10 days have past with no contact. In other words I want to be "alerted" when we did not follow up with a potential client. Please explain like you are talking to a second grader because I am a novice user, but I can get it done if given good directions. Many thanks! T |

Just a thought
you could do somthing like this =IF(A1<NOW()-10,"GreaterThan10Days","") or =IF(A1<NOW()-10,"Client Alert","") Copy and paste one of these codes into cell B1 and when Cell A1 Date value is greater than 10 days you will see a message "Treza Blu" wrote: I have a spreadsheet where we input a date when we had first communication with a potential parent/student.

High,
Try Conditional formatting (format - Conditional Formatting) ChooseFormula is and in the box type =TODAY() - A1 (the cell reference) = 10 Then click on format and choose your colour. Finally use Format paimter to apply it to all the dates involved. Hope this helps Cheers "Treza Blu" wrote in message ...
