Hello Ladies and Gents.

I am having a problem with VLOOKUP and Conditional Formatting. What I am
trying to do is apply conditional formatting to the result of a formula. I
have a list of serial numbers in column A. In Column B I have a VLOOKUP
formula that takes the serial number from column A and compares it to a list
of serial numbers and dates imported from access in column C and D, taking
the date from column D. The result of this formula is a date that
corresponds to the same serial number found in columns A and C. I applied a
conditional format to this date and it doesn't recognize that it is a date at
all. When I type in the value the conditional format works correctly. I
tried to change the format to no avail. Does anyone have any insight to my
problem? Thanks in Advance!

PS I dont want to type in over 500 dates just to get the conditional
formatting to work :(
