Date Conversion Problem
I'm attempting to set up a spreadsheet that keeps track of pending cases
where a RECEIVED DATE is posted causing a DUE DATE to automatically propagate. I have no problem setting up the pending formula (something like "A1 + 30") but rather in the conditional formatting: I want the DUE DATE cell to format to red when that date is past due (something like "IF < TODAY()"). The problem is then in those cells that don't have a RECEIVED DATE yet (blank). The DUE DATE column will automatically "go to red" since Excel reads a blank cell as "zero" and computes that day as "thirty" which is less than today's date. Any ideas? Thanks -- 6-West |
