conditional formatting
I would like to use conditional formatting to let me know in red if the number of received items is less than the number of ordered items. I know I can do this if I have a specific number of items always ordered, but that number always changes. I also would like a date to turn red if the schedualed date an item was supposed to come in is past today's date, any day of the year. Can anyone help? -- Roz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roz's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29746 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=494594 |

Then you can conditionally format using the formula =(A1<B1) In case you don't know, use Format Conditional formatting Then change the first drop down box to "Formula Is" and type the formula in the second box. For your date, conditionally format using "Cell Value Is", "less than", and type =TODAY() in the third box. |
