    conditionally format entire row for dates 15 days past today's date?

    I have spent too many hours Googling and trial with mostly error in attempting this. I formatted the very first cell A1 for today's date =TODAY(); this is also dirrectly above the column with all the dates in it. I just want an entire row's contents to turn red if it is 15 days old or older. This =$A1<TODAY()-15 somewhat works, but it only turns the date cell red, not the whole row. It also makes blank cells turns red, which I would like to remain blank (another formula is needed I imagine).

    Advice would be very much appreciated.

    Thank you!

    How can you use Conditional Formating.

    --In Excel 2007 and 2010, Conditional Formatting is in the Styles group on the Home tab. In Excel 2003, Conditional Formatting is on the Format menu. See here how you can work using CF.

    So close Fotis1991! Thank you! Is there a way to highlight the entire row though through to cell G? This just highlights the individual cell, and I did select the row before going into coniditional formatting. It did stop highlighting the blank cells though.
