Default Conditional Formatting

I have a spreadsheet that contains 3 columns. Date of Birth, Retirement
Date, Waiver Date. I have created a formula to automatically calculate the
retirement date and waiver date based on the date of birth.

Does anyone know how I can set up a conditionl format to highlight the cells
of the retirement date and waiver date once the current date (Today's Date)
is either equal or greater than the date of the retirement date or waiver
date??

Thanks.

Default Conditional Formatting

Assume retirement date in B2 and waiver date in C2

Select B2:Cxx where xx is end of data in column C.

FormatCFFormula is:

=B2<=today()

Note:Excel may try to assist by adding $ signs as in $B$2

Delete them.
