I have conditional formatting to help visually identify when certain licenses will expire. However, the formatting seems to be working except in cell I6 (the cells containing the date 2/29/2023 in the expires after 3 years column) and I cannot figure out why. Any ideas what is happening would be helpful.

Excel Facts

Wildcard in VLOOKUP
Use =VLOOKUP("Apple*" to find apple, Apple, or applesauce
The data in that cell is text, not a date. I can tell because there is a leading 0 but none of your other dates do this. Retype 2/29/2023 into the cell.

P.S. If you show a screen shot instead of using L2BB, please show column and row headers so we can confirm what cells we are looking at.

Also, It doesn't look like I6 isn't included in any of the ranges you specified in your rules.

I retyped the date and confirmed that cell is formatted as a date. That did not correct it to now highlight. I apologize, but I don't know what a code tag is or anything regarding a vba button.

I missed that. Here is where to fix it. Change
Excel Formula:
$G$4:$I$5,$G$7:$I$43
to
Excel Formula:
$G$4:$I$43

There may be some other cleanup needed in these ranges but that will fix the I6 problem.
