Hi there,

First time post on this forum. Looking for some help with the following...

I have two separate columns with varying times. The first column contains an arrival time and second column with a completion time.

I need the second column completion time to automatically highlight once the manually entered time has surpassed 3 hours after the first column arrival time.

Hope that makes sense! If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

Cris
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Enter the following formula into Conditional Formatting, choose a fill color, then, copy and paste by format down the column:

Code:
=B1-A1>3/24 'substitute with appropriate columns

Hi YKY,

Thanks, I've tried using your suggestion and unfortunately still no luck.

Used this formula under cond. formatting greater than =$I$7-$F$7>3/24 and still not luck.

Any other suggestions or need some more info?

Tks.
