RE: Excel - Conditional Formatting and 18 Months
Dear Linda
Thank you for attending Excel Intermediate training. I hope you enjoyed the training and benefited from the course.
Please refer to the Excel file that I have uploaded with this post.
If you notice only one cell has different formatting because I have used the Conditional formatting on all the cells in column D to have all the cells to have light yellow background and Blue font colour if the date is 18 months from the current date.
The condition that I have applied is =TODAY()+540
Please note that I have typed in 540 instead of 18 Months as dates are treated as numbers in Excel.
18 Months * 30 days = 540
Today will ensure that the date automatically updates everyday and you have the correct cells highlighted.
I hope this works.
