Using the Today function
I want to apply conditional formatting to dates that are either today, or tomorrow (so today +1) only. Can I do this in one formula? currently I'm using 2 (=cell>today() and =cell>today()+1)
RE: Using the Today function
Hi Charlotte
Thanks for getting in touch. Yes this is possible by using the OR function. The OR function looks like this:
=OR(criteria1, criteria2)
When either of the criteria are met, it returns TRUE and switches the conditional formatting on. Your formula will look like this:
=OR(A1=TODAY(),A1=TODAY()+1)
You enter this by selecting your range, going to Conditional Formatting on the Home tab, select New Rule > Use a formula to determine which cells to format. Enter the formula then use the format button to select your formatting style.
Kind regards
