Default Change cell color dependin on date ...

Hi,

Looking for some help please ...

Column A contains a list of date values (e.g. 11/04/2005).

I'm looking for a way to change the cell color based on the following
criteria ...

If the date falls earlier than today but no earlier than a week before
today then cell color to be red.

If the date falls earlier than today but no earlier than two weeks before
today then cell color to be yellow.

If the date falls earlier than today but no earlier than three weeks before
today then cell color to be green.

Can anyone offer a solution to this please? Should I be looking at
conditional formatting or should I use VBA?

Many thanks.
