Hi, I am getting in a bit of spin trying to sort this myself, and would like some help please.

I have 3 columns I am referring to. Column G has a simple =F3+14 to give me 14 days on from the date in column F

However, what I would like (and my issue, which is stringing multiple formulas/conditional formatting together!!):


Assuming reference below to Row 3:

Text in G3 to be Green on days 1-4 of date in F3
Text in G3 to be orange on days 5-9 of date in F3
Text in G3 to be red on days 10-14 of date in F3
G3 cell to be filled red with white text when >14 days in F3

AND (sorry)

to not be conditional formatted at all once there is a date in Column H

If I cannot simply drag the formatting down the sheet, then this needs to apply to Rows 3-95

Hope that makes sense

Thank you so much in advance

Tazzy :)

You can have more than 3 rules now (not counting the default when none of the rules apply)?

Hi Kevin,

Firstly, Thank you for taking the time to do this for me, it is appreciated.

The formulas work, which is great, providing there is a date entered in Column F cells.... If it is blank, the cell is red with an odd date in..... I have tried entering the cell formula without the conditional formatting and I get the same date come up. Once I enter a date in cell F it all works as it should.

Ideally, I would like cells in column G to be clear and if there is no date in F...

Could I suggest you make a slight change to your formula in column G, and a change to the last condition in the CF:

Hi Kevin,

that is fantastic thank you. Added unintentional bonus that if I enter something in received with todays date or later, the cell font is black, not as per the conditional formatting, so I can populate the other cells in that row with what I ordered, and it now shows as black text to tell me it hasn't arrived yet..... perfect!

Really appreciate your help
