    Hi, welcome to the forum

    I dont have 2013, but I believe that from 2010 onwards, you can use CF across sheets, just the same as within the same sheet
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    Re: conditional formating between sheets

    i am trying to create a maintenance database and want my index page to show if there is a service due on a particular day
    i am trying to explain this the best i can
    i need the cell on to have a formula that looks at all the dates in a range of cells and if date is the same as todays date to show up as colour
    i hope this makes more sense

    Re: conditional formating between sheets

    If you are familiar with Conditional Formatting, you should be able to use CF across sheets.

    If you are not familiar with CF, upload a small (clean) sample workbook (not a pic) of what you are working with, and what your expected outcome would look like.
