DATE ALARM
Date differences can be computed using normal arithmetic. When you say "..
how close I'm getting..", getting close to what? I guess you had better start searching ALL those books..... -- Regards, Nigel "LANCE" wrote in message ...

DATE ALARM
Please drop the all caps.
You can use Conditional Formatting to give a cell a background color when the date entered is near a pre-set date. =E3$G$3-7 where G3 is pre-set date and E3 has the entered date.
