Hello everyone,

So yesterday I had some great help from PeteWright, but I cannot get my conditional formatting to work and have really confused myself, so, please could one of you awesome people help me with another way.

Yesterday the spreadsheet for the conditional formatting was based on a pivot chart table, it had the word (Blank) in quite a few cells where there was no date and i think this is why i have been getting really confused, so below is a mini sheet from the main table.

This table does not have the word (Blank) in it, just an empty cell, below the mini sheet is an example i have colored the cells in manually, to show the results i am after.

Would it be possible for someone to work out the formula's for me that i can input into the conditional formatting as a new rule(s)?

Any help would be greatly received.

Thank you,

Stefan

I just colored them to illustrate what I would like the cells to look like

The new rule formula used as a basis to start with from the help given to me last night is = IF( AND( J$3>=$F5,J$3<=$G5), 1, "").

This was from a different workbook so the cell ranges will be different, but the formula will be in the same format, if that makes sense.

i'm sorry. but you need to provide some better specifics. Using the mini worksheet in your post J3, F3, F5, and G5 all have no data. How can a formula provide results if there are no inputs?

the mini sheet you gave helps, but it doesn't have the gray cells your first post has.
Here is my take on your formulas, based upon the sample data in your first post. The formla results are just my calculations for hte conditional formatting, and would be taken out in the final worksheet.

No, sorry they did not work, the grey colored cells were filled manually, therefore no formula, i colored them for illustration purposes only to show the desired result, i really want this to work, but think i might just give up, thank you so much for your time awoohaw, it really is appreciated.

I might not have been clear when asking for help, i would like the received date to the start date highlighted, the start date to the end date highlighted and the received date to the RTP date highlighted, so three conditions, if that makes sense.
