    Cells that can change date depending on the number i put in

    I put number 1 in c16, the cell highlights red, put a number 2 in cell c17, the cell goes orange and 3 in cell c18 the cell goes green
    i fill out the rest of the info

    now i have put in a date rasied, now the due to be completed needs to be plus 7 days for the red, plus 14 days for the orange and plus 21 days for the green
    but i need it to change depending on what number i put in column c

    next when the completed date has passed i need it to put a date in column k next to the item counting up the dates it has gone past, but then take the number away if the status has closed

    Hey!

    Put this in L16 of the attached sheet. This will solve the 1st bit.

    =G16+VLOOKUP(C16,{1,7;2,14;3,21},2,0)

    I dont understand what exactly you mean by this -

    next when the completed date has passed i need it to put a date in column k next to the item counting up the dates it has gone past, but then take the number away if the status has closed

    yeah thanks humdingaling
    but could it be done so that if i put a date in the completed on column, it hides or deletes the date in overdue column and changes status to closed

    how do i put some data in cell k4 and then get it to show only the rows that have the same data in.

    eg: c2 in k4 then only show the c2 in column d and the rest of the data in that row, but hiding the rest

    Re: Cells that can change date depending on the number i put in

    hmm i revisited the spreadsheet
    column J does not work as intended

    do you need the DV in J? because if you use it, it overwrites the formula

    with your addition request
    not understanding what you are requesting
    you want to put the value of Column C in to K4?
