Hi All,

Just a really easy one, I am sure! I just cannot seem to get my conditional formatting to work.

If todays date is 2 weeks after the date in column c then highlight column d in red but if there is nothing in column c I would like no formatting at all.

TIA!

Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.

Use this Conditional Formatting formula for cell D4

Amazing, thank you Joe4, I was getting confused with ISBLANK functions!

You are welcome!

One key is to understand that Excel actually stores dates as numbers (specifically, the number of days since 1/0/1900).
So you can use mathematical operators in date calculations.
