Did you mean ROW(), rather than COLUMN() ?

I hope someone will be able to help me. I have tried a number of things
but
can't get this just right. I want to be ale to make the text in a cell
turn
red if todays date is between two dates. Example: in Cells A1 through
A12
are the months of the year (January, February, March, April, May, June,
July,
August, September, October, November, December). I want to highlight
he
current month in Red.

I have tried the following and had mixed results. In each cell I have
tried
the following:

1. =OR(TODAY() = 1-1-2008, TODAY() <= 1-31-2008)
Results = Turns text red regardless of current date


2. =AND(TODAY() = 1-1-2008, TODAY() <= 1-31-2008)
Results = Does not turn text red regardless of current date

I'm not sure whats wrong here, please help.

Thanks,
Bill

Hello Bill:

Try this formula with Conditional Formatting for cells A1:A12.

=MONTH(DATE(1900,COLUMN(),1))=MONTH(TODAY())
