How do I look up the current month and then shade the box red if the current month APC or PPC is less than 80% of my target total (PGA)? I can change each month red via the conditional formating; however, I need this box to turn red.

Thank You in advance...

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Try this formula

=OR(INDEX(D7:O7,MATCH(TEXT(TODAY(),"mmmm"),D3:O3,0))< C7*0.8,INDEX(D8:O8,MATCH(TEXT(TODAY(),"mmmm"),D3:O3,0))< C8*0.8)

Hmmm...I think I was making things wayyy to complicated...lol I was trying to solve in VBA... lol...

This is my box shader...

Sub ShadeBox()
Range("H10:K10").Select
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Sheets("TEST").Range("H10")
If Range("d7").Value <= Range("C7").Value Or Range("D8").Value <= Range("c8").Value Then rng.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End Sub

It returns the values True or False... How do you make the cells change colors? I tried conditional formating, but it stays red for both True and False...weird...
