With conditional formatting, how do I flag a value in terms of calendar months? ie. I want to flag any cell with a date over 6 calendar months old: 01/17/2017 would flag on 07/31/2017, 08/03/2017 would flag on 02/28/2018. Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
for the "is less than Value" use
Code:
=EDATE(TODAY(),-6)
or similar calculation.

Thanks for the response. The above formula appears to reference a date 6 months prior, I am needing 6 calendar months prior.

Examples would be: 01/17/2017 would flag on 07/31/2017, 08/03/2017 would flag on 02/28/2018.

Thanks!
