    Highligting todays date in a list over max number of days in a month. Halp?

    I have put the numbers 1-31 in A3:A33 to indicate the date of any month.
    I want the number corresponding to todays date to be highlighted with background color.
    :04.02.2012 example:
    1
    2
    3
    4 <---- Background color goes here since it's the 4th of this month.
    5
    6
    ....

    Is it possible to also put background color in B6,C6,D6,E6 and F6 when "date 4"(A6) is colored?

    Thanks for looking in to it. :)
