Difference Between Dates WITH Conditional Formatting
I want cell C2 to turn RED if it is more than two days different than the
date in cell B2. Oddly, the formula "=B2-TODAY()2" works, but that is not what I want to do. I want to say "=B2-C2()2", but the cell does not change color. MS Excel just stared back at me. An exhaustive search of the www was of no avail. Suggestions are welcome. DOUG ECKERT Wichita KS

The () is a call to a formula, but C2 is a cell addres, not a formula "DOUG" wrote: I want cell C2 to turn RED if it is more than two days different than the date in cell B2.
