    Cond.Format: Highlight Col B, if Column A has a past date.

    Hi I'm trying to figure this out, but haven't had much luck.

    Column A = Due Date
    Column B = Status of task (Complete, Active, Pending)


    So what I'm trying to do is highlight the "Pending" cells in column B if the date in column A is over 30 days ago.

    What I had

    =IF(B2="Pending",...

    but I can't finish it.

    So I want a formula that says If B2=Pending & A2=date over a month ago, then highlight B2 bright red.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Try

    =(B2="Pending")*(A2<TODAY()-30)
