Hi all,
I'm having trouble applying some simple conditional formatting to a cell range. I want to set up a simple traffic light system for a range of dates, to show when they're close to expiry/expired. Simple enough, but the issue is that the range of cells contains a formula to return the date and this seems to be screwing up the conditional formatting rules.
The cells contain this formula; =IF(ISBLANK(G14),"",G14+90), referring to another date in cell G14.
Is there a way to set the conditional format rule to read against the value that the formula returns, rather than reading the formula itself?
At the moment, when I set up the rule to highlight red against ='<TODAY()', it just highlights the whole range, regardless of the date shown in the cell.
Any wisdom much appreciated!
