    Conditional format based on date - formatting blank cells

    I have a pretty straightforward formula which works fine by formatting dates from today() and previous... except it also formats blank cells. Is there a way to stop it doing that (without adding more conditional formats because i have few on the go)?

    Try: =AND(H2<>"",H2< TODAY()+1)

    Déjà vu, methinks! It's the same procedure as dealing with blanks as your other query, and I gave you the answer here:
