Hi
I have entered a date in a cell. I would like the next cell to take the date automatically +3 days from the pervious cell and the colour should change after the actual date is equal to +3days.

If the Date is entered into A1
Enter the formula
=A1+3 into the next cell and copy / paste down or across as required.
Use Format-Conditional Formatting to control the cell background colours
based on the condition(s) required.

Cheers
Nigel

The conditional format could have a condition of Formula Is and a formula of
=B1<=TODAY()
assuming that you use B1 to enter Nigel's Formula

How do i Make the content in a cell blink.

Hi
not possible with build-functionality (and I'm vera glad there's no
such feature).
You could achieve this with a OnTime method constantly running and
changing the cell color (search the Google archive for 'blinking cell')

But PLEASE don't use such a feature in a serious spreadsheet!
