turn a cel a color based o todays date
Projected dates left to right drom D5:N5
Actual dates are entered one at a time below projected date as a project ends in D6:N6 The answer goes in D7:N7 All works fine. 1. If Todays date exceeds Projected date =1 day ie: Expected 2/11/09 and Today is 2/12/09 2. I'd like to turn "That Cell" in D6:N6 Blue, (not all cells,) just the Cell that exceeds the date based on Today. =1 3. When a date IS entered into a BLUE D6 rows cell, I would like the cell to look normal, turn the BLUE OFF and show the date entered. Can this be done? |

Select D6:N6 and enter this formula in CF formula field, choose blue pattern!
If you enter a new date in D6 that is <=TODAY(), blue will be switched off. If you want to switch off blue at ANY new date then it can be done only via a VBA event sub. =TODAY()-D6=1 Regards, Stefi €˛Mark€¯ ezt Ć*rta: Projected dates left to right drom D5:N5 Actual dates are entered one at a time below projected date as a project ends in D6:N6 The answer goes in D7:N7 All works fine. 1.

You could select all the cells that need this conditional formatting and in
the conditional formatting dialog use: Formula Is =D6-TODAY()=1 and set required format I have used D6 here as I assume this in the first cell in the selected range However, is any cell has a value grater than about 39800 then it could be mistaken for a date best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "Mark" wrote in message ...

Thanks Stefi,
I will give it a try, Don't understand the VBA staement, I'm a newbie! Can this CF Be included (added to) under a full sheet that has formulas, without changeing current text/date /headings. Or does it appear, I just start his new CF at the next new line? "Stefi" wrote: Select D6:N6 and enter this formula in CF formula field, choose blue pattern!

No, I entered a test date which poulated D5:N5
D6 now is 4/25/09 and dates gets higher to the right) However D6:N6 are all blue. I would like the cells to remain plain and only to turn BLUE, if the coorsponding date above D6:N6, exceeds the date above in D5:N5 =1 from todays date I'm sure I didn't say it right.

Hi,
Why don't you show us some sample data and explain with that what you want to have happen? You say the "answer" goes into D7:N7, the answer to what, and what does that have to do with you process. You have and Expected Date and a Projected Date what is the difference and where are they located? A final point, eventually, when its all clear your formula will look something like =TODAY()D5 You should be highlighting row 6 when you do this. -- If this helps, please click the Yes button Cheers, Shane Devenshire "Mark" wrote: Bernard, I covered D6:N6 enterd cf =D6-TODAY()=1 Populated dates across D5:N5 D5 = 2/7/09 Being that today is 2/9/09 D6 did not change to blue Any ideas?

Thanks Shane.. My superfulous explainations, are because I feel I'm
describing something for a blind person, because I am an amatuer. When ..If I just state the obvious, usually, I get exactly what I need. It did turn out to be( for me ) a set of advanced CF's Bernard, hit them SPOT on. Mark And I Thank you for taking your time to deal with guys like me..
