Hello all,
I have a table (Query 1) which pulls data from an SQL server and auto refreshed every 2 minutes.
This table has rows each depicting a single order with columns showing various information about the order (Value, Status, Allocation etc)
In this table i have a column called "Last Updated' (Column M) which tells me the last time the order was adjusted on our system.
It shows in standard time format e.g. 16/06/2023 13:01 ,this represents the time a picking list was printed and sent to our warehouse.

On this table i would like to conditional format so a row would turn red if the current time =NOW() is more than two hours after the Last Updated time.
This would then flash orders that have been active and allocated for longer than two hours, letting the pickers know to prioritize them.

I have tried solutions from other threads such as =AND(MOD(NOW(),1)>=TIMEVALUE(LEFT(M$7,5)),MOD(NOW(),1)<TIMEVALUE(RIGHT(M$7,5))) but i think the application is a bit different so isnt working for me.

Any help would be appreciated. Let me know if you need any more specifics.
