Excel 2007 : Count the number of consecutive days worked and highlight

Count the number of consecutive days worked
_____________________________________
Hi,

I have an excel spreadsheet to record employee consecutive workdays.

It is set on as a grid e.g. column A stores all the dates and column B stores all the employee names from a drop down.

At this time I need to highlight in yellow, an employee has worked 16 consecutive days, and in red when an employee has worked 19 days. At the very least I need the 19 consecutive days worked in red.

If this is possible I would greatly appreciate help, all my contacts are stumped!

Any and all help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

If needed supply a before and after sheet in the workbook so the person helping you can see what you are trying to achieve.

Doing this will ensure you get the result you need!
