Date color change question

[ajamesritt]

If cell A7, which is a future-date in date format and fill-colored green, reaches 30 days away from todays date change fill-color to orange and 7 days away change to color red. Is there a way to only change the dates that are green-colored dates and not non-green-filled dates also approaching 30 / 7 dates simultaneously.

is there any rules for green to be coloured - or are these manually coloured - if just a manual Fill - then i suspect you will need VBA and afraid i dont provide VBA solutions to the forum , only way i know to do it is VBA not a function()

What version of excel are you using - would be worth updating your profile to show version as solutions will be dependant on what version you have and therefore what functions available - office version like 2010/2013/2019/365 etc


may also be worth considering
A sample sheet would help here, and possibly will enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.


The forum does allow for spreadsheets to be uploaded direct to the forum -

Please see the Yellow Banner at the top of the page explaining how to attach a sample spreadsheet

A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

Here are the instructions, found at the top of the page again

HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK:, Fast answers need clear examples. Post a small Excel sheet (not a picture) showing realistic & representative sample data WITHOUT confidential information (10-20 rows, not thousands...) and some manually calculated results. For a new thread (1st post), scroll to Manage Attachments, otherwise scroll down to GO ADVANCED, click, and then scroll down to MANAGE ATTACHMENTS and click again. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.
