    Conditional Formatting on date - not working correctly

    Hello

    I did have a search but couldn't specifically see what I needed.

    I've attached an example of the database I'm trying to create.

    Issue 1 - I have got an ISBLANK statement, This Month, and Cell Value - which sort of works - but what I need the sheet to do is:


    Date in the future - format to 'no fill' black text

    Date due in next 30 days from the date in the cell - format fill Amber colour

    As soon as the date has passed it needs to turn red.



    Issue 2 - if the cell is blank I need the cell to be empty - at the moment it's red.



    Issue 3 - When I put a Y in the completed column I need the date to turn green.




    Many thanks
    Leanne

    Ok, thanks for that.
    For amber use
    =AND(F2<>"",F2<=TODAY()+30)
    For red
    =AND(F2<>"",F2<TODAY())
    For green
    =G2="Y"

    Hi Fluff

    Thanks for that

    Could you possibly check the attached document for me? This is the actual document ( I have removed all confidential info). I don't think I've put the formulas in the right place?

    Many thanks for your help
    Much appreciated!
