HI all,
I have two questions I need some help with. I am creating a schedule and have two issues I have no idea how to format and or code. Here goes.

First:[/B] I want to conditionally format the following. When the finish date of a task is =< then today and the % complete cell is less than 100% then I want my cells TASK (B10) and % Complete (F10) to be highlighted Red as a notification.

=IF(Finishdate)=<(Today())AND(%COMPLETE)<100%,THEN
(TASK)AND(%COMPLETE), HIGHLIGHT RED
Finish Date = (E10)
Today = (TODAY)
%COMPLETE = (F10)
TASK = (B10)

Second: I have a WBS column and I have the code for that and works great. A big thanks to the designer. I want something VBA to update a starting date and update my dates in my workbook column C.

When I click button (ChStDate) or Change Start Date, I want a popup to come up, with the existing date in Cell (F2), a place to add a new date, and then have that calculate the number of days it has changed. Now, I need this to update many cells in column C which have a data format, MM/DD/YYYY, however I need it to only update the cells in column C with the WBS lines in level two and up. The level 1 dates in column C have other formulas and that will auto update by them selves. I have put my WBS code at below this for use if necessary.

I would really appreciate some assistance with this as this is a killer. I just don't get it, lOl!
Thank you in advance.
Dave

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
