    hi Victor. select the range you want to apply to (say from G8:BM26)
    go to Home -> Conditional Formatting -> New Rule -> Use a formula to determine which cells to format -> Format values where this formula is true:
    =AND(G$3>=$D8,G$3<=$E8)

    format colour

    If we do all the work for you, you will never learn how to do it yourself

    Ben has shown you what you need to do, try and do it for yourself
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Remove the double quotes in your CF formula. It then will work. When entering a CF formula you have to add the equal sign yourself, otherwise, XL puts it between double quotes.
