Cell Format wihich highlights a date longer than a year

can someone help me, i have a spreadsheet where i input dates for each person and i want it to highlight if the date is over a year old?

RE: Cell Format wihich highlights a date longer than a year

Hi Alana

You would need to use the 'Use a formula to determine..' option.

The formula needs to equate to TRUE for the conditional format to be applied.

Something like =(TODAY()-B3)>365

B3 is the cell containing the date you want to check.

Excel tip:

Generate randon numbers

Some types of analysis require you to use randomly generated numbers. You can also use randomly generated numbers to quickly populate an Excel spreadsheet. There's an easy function you can use to do this automatically. Here are a few of the ways you can use it:

Type =RAND() in a cell to generate a number between 0 and 1.
Type =RAND()*100 to generate a number between 1 and 100.
