Hi all,

I am trying to highlight expired/ expiring dates using CF

I have the following formula =AND(LEN(G13),TODAY()>G13)

This doesn't seem to work with a range of cells and only highlights parts of the range

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Think I got it, it looks like the formula is checking each cell within the range

how do I highlight a C:J if the condition is true?

Many thanks

Select C13:J13 and in CF try this formula

=AND(LEN($G13),TODAY()>$G13)

Many thanks Marcelo, works perfect,

is there a way to use this formula to highlight a day before TODAY?

Hi Fluff,

Can I use a similar formula to highlight

Red - Anything past TODAY
Green - Today
Yellow - 1 Day Before TODAY
Orange - 2 Days before TODAY

Many thanks

The red formula is the one you already have.
For green use
=AND(LEN($G13),TODAY()=$G13)
yellow
=AND(LEN($G13),TODAY()-1=$G13)
orange use the above but change -1 to -2
But ensure that the red rule is the last in the list, otherwise it will overall the yellow & orange rules
