    I did a similar exercise , but put the date in as 1 June 2013.
    The cell colour didnt change.
    What I needing is all the cells from A:1 - A:10 to change colour if A:1 is more than 10 wordays from today.

    Hope this is clearer

    Hi Popipipo

    This is not working . The cell colours do not change to red as you have formated in the CF.
    Any other ideas.

    Regards

    Nope - just not working.
    If I type a date into A:1 and todays date is more than 10 work days from that date , A:1 - A:14 should turn red.

    .....and Analyisis ToolPak functions like WORKDAY can't be used in conditional formatting in Excel 2003, even if ATP is enabled

    10 working days is equivalent to 14 calendar days in most cases, is it sufficient to use this formula?

    =A$1-TODAY()>14

    or if you have to use workdays try using this formula somewhere on the worksheet, e.g. in cell Z1

    =WORKDAY(A1,10)

    and then in conditional formatting use

    =A$1>Z$1
