How do I show dates older than present date?
I have created a spreadsheet that shows dates of WORKDAYS a certain number
past the "start date". I would like to know if there is a way to have the date automatically change to "red" once the current date surpasses the workday listed in the cell. For example: I have a start date of 6/20/05 and the WORKDAY function shows that in 5 days it will be 6/27/05 and in 25 days it will be 8/2/05. Let's say that today is 6/29/05...how do I get the cell that shows 6/27/05 to automatically turn red (so as to show that it is delinquent)? Thank you. |

Hi,
Highlight the relevant cell (the one you wish to highlight if it is past the current date). Choose FormatConditional Formatting from the menu bar Use the following settings in the first two drop down boxes. Cell Value Is & Less Than Type now() in the third, rightmost box. Click Format and choose how you would like the cell to appear if the conditions are met. Click OK twice.
