    Smile Please help me create a formula to highlight a row when a due date is close or passed

    Hi All,

    I am stuck trying to workout a formula for my spreadsheet, basically I need the row to show as Amber if the date in cell I4 is within 3 days of the deadline, providing that cell J4 is blank. Also if the date within I4 has passed and J4 is either blank or passed the dated within I4 I need the row to show as red, also if J$ is blank the cell should not highlight.


    Hopefully that makes sense

    Re: Please help me create a formula to highlight a row when a due date is close or passed

    You will need Conditional Formatting for this, and will need to create a new rule for each "test"

    If you are not familiar with using CF, let me know, otherwise use this as a New Rule/Use Formula, for the 1st test...
    =and(J4<>"",J4>=J4-3) format fill Amber

    Revise this for the 2nd rule.
    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
