    Approaching Dates with Conditional Formatting

    I have posted an example workbook . This enquiry applies to the table in the Tissue tab. I have tried countless formulae to no avail. I need conditional formatting rules that highlight the respective row for approaching and expired dates:
    1. If the date in column I is PAST today’s date, the row is highlighted red
    2. If the date in column I is three days from now or equal to today, the row is highlighted yellow.
    3. If a date is placed in column O, the two aforementioned rules are turned off / no longer apply.

    I thought I had it one day, but then it would screw up the next day. I currently use Office 2016 and my work computer uses Office 2007. I need them to be compatible with both versions.

    THANKS in advance! :/

    1. If the date in column I is PAST today’s date, the row is highlighted red
    =AND(O2="", $I2>today())

    2. If the date in column I is three days from now or equal to today, the row is highlighted yellow.
    =AND($O2="",$I2<=TODAY()+3,$I2>=TODAY())

    3. If a date is placed in column O, the two aforementioned rules are turned off / no longer apply.

    Hi,

    See attached

    No colour with the 'Stop if True' ticked.

    Sucuri is preventing the other CFs but see the file.
    However please note the strange anomaly that we encountered in this similar Conditionl Format thread a few days ago.

    The CFs don't take immediate effect. You will have to select another tab and come back of widen or narrow one column by a few pixels.
