Formula to show 2 months within 3rd birthday
 

Hi.

In cell A1 I have a date of birth.

In cell B1 I want to display a cell colour of red if todays date is within 2
months of the 3rd birthday.

I'm going to copy this formula down.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Formula to show 2 months within 3rd birthday
 

CF/ Formula Is:
=AND(DATE(YEAR(A1)+3,MONTH(A1)-2,DAY(A1))<TODAY(),DATE(YEAR(A1)+3,MONTH(A1)+2,DAY (A1))TODAY())
You may want to change < to <= and to =, depending on whether you want
the limits to be inclusive or exclusive.
And you may also wish to change the formula if you only want to cover dates
within 2 months BEFORE the 3rd birthday and to exclude dates AFTER the 3rd
birthday.

Hi Jacob

I tried your formula but it didn't work. Maybe i was doing something
incorrect. Anyway David's post above worked so thank you for your help.
