Default autofill colour based on date entry

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)

Unfortunately I am using Excel 2000 and in the process of getting my tech
guys to buy the 2007 office suite for my department.

Any other suggestions?

I have excel 2000, and it has the analysis toolpac. Maybe I downloaded it?
Check the MS web site.

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
indicating a CD-ROM needs to be inserted. Still no luck. :(
