I have a list of food products on several sheets. In one column are all of the expiration dates. I have conditional formatting to change the cell color to a different color depending on if its expiring this month, next week, this week, or in the last 7 days. Now after a product has been expired for 7 days, the color will change again to yellow. which is the color of items expiring in the month. I dont want it to change again, after the 7 days of being dark red, I would like it to go back to white. The colors I am using are yellow, orange, red and dark red. For this month, next week, this week, and last seven days respectively. Can anybody help me out with this?

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
How are you doing the conditional formatting? through VBA? Post sample of conditions you are using
