I would like to compare a date to today to display the following where the date is in cell A1


If A1=Today then "Due Today"
If A1 Greater than Today then "Overdue"
If A1 Less than Today then "Due in x Days"(where x is the number of days until the date in A1)


Any ideas

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
did you mean to swap greater and less than?
if the date in A1 is greater than today it should be in the future
