Re: VB code to color row text based on date being greater than system date

Hello,

I have an urgent need for a VBA script that will color an entire rows text red, if the date found in Column U is greater than 6 months of the system date. I have tried myself with no avail.

I found this thread below though to be quite similar to my need and was wondering if anyone could assist in modifying the previously devised code to match my specific criteria above.

Thanks!

Have you looked into conditional formatting yet?

I have, but it must be VBA as the script would be added to a larger macro that would come out with an export of alot of data prior to being run.

In that case, don't be afraid to take some time to look up the help pages on the different methods and functions you see in the vba code- and to use a lot of trial and error, maybe some test functions, to find out how they work. Some functions you'll likely need -

DATEADD, DATE, RANGE, RANGE.ENTIREROW, RANGE.FONT.COLOR

There are different ways of looping through cells or rows- I like using the WHILE statement.

Trust me, it will help you out to learn to research and develop your own code through trial and error.
