How to highlight cell match todays date
I have a column of cells with the dates of this month. I would like to have
the excel sheet to highlight (make cell fill black with yellow text) the cell that equals the today date each time the document is opened. All other cells in that column range would be just no cell fill and black text. So basically, I would like it to highlight the what the current date is. I have no clue on how this can be done, but sure there is a way. Thanks in advance for any help! -- ~Jeff~ [Windows NT 4.0, SP 6, Office 2000] |

Hi,
I have a column of cells with the dates of this month. I would like to have the excel sheet to highlight (make cell fill black with yellow text) the cell that equals the today date each time the document is opened. All other use "Format/Conditional formatting" on the cells with "formula" is =today(). best regards arno |

Hi Jeff select your cells and goto 'Conditional format'. enter the following formula =A1=TODAY() and choose your format Assumption A1 is the top left cell of your selection HTH Frank |

sorry,
the formula should be =a1=today() where you higligted eg. A1:A10. Make sure you use correct references (no $A$1 etc.). best regards arno |
