Default Conditional Formatting

I have created a calendar using the DAY function to just return the DAY of
another cell in 01/05/07 format. I want to be able to enter a date in
01/05/07 format in a cell outside of the calendar and have all the days prior
highlighted.

I tried using the Condiotional Formatting in the Format menu, but I can't
seem to figure it out. Am I on the right track, or is there a better way?

Please help,

Joel

Default Conditional Formatting

If the calendar is in D1 thru J4 and the ref cell is A1, then select D1 and
set the conditional formatting to:

Formula is:

=D1<$A$1

then copy this format to all the cells D1 thru J4
