I have a spreadsheet to record when monthly duty reports are received by each
employee and reviewed by mgmt.

Column A1:A200 Employee Name
Column B1:B200 Date Received in April
Column C1:C200 Date Reviewed in April
Column D1:D200 Date Received in May
Column E1:E200 Date Reviewed in May etc

Is there a formula I could use to fill the cell in grey when a report is not
received
when a report is received late in blue and when a report is received on time
in pink?

Reports received the 5th business day of the following month of the report
(i.e. april report due the 5th business day in may) are considered late and
reports reviewed after the 10th business day are late.

Any suggestions without using code?


Thanks!! :)

you would use the conditional formatting feature, along with the networkdays
formula, which is in the analysis toolpac add-in (if you don't have it,
tools/add-ins and check it)

The ATP cannot be downloaded.

It is installed upon a "typical" installation in versions earlier than 2007.

Activate through ToolsAdd-insATP

I tried to activate it through the toolsadd-insATP and a message appears

The ATP is available under ToolsAdd-ins?

You have it checked?

Try unchecking, close dialog then ToolsAdd-ins and re-check it.

If not available have a look in the default install folder.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office9\Library\Analysis

There will be 4 files in the Analysis folder.

ANALYS32.XLL
FUNCRES.XLA
ATPVBAEN.XLA
PROCDB.XLA

If not found there, suggest you try the control panel add/removechange and
go in and remove the ATP installation then re-install just the ATP

Make sure you set it "run all from my computer"

Assuming you have the installation CD, of course.

You can't do it directly.
You'd get a message like: "you may not use references to other worksheets or
workbooks for conditional formatting formulas".
CF regards the ATP as being another worksheet or workbook.
You'd have to use a helper column to do the necessary ATP calculation, the
use the result of that in your CF formula.
