Which version of Access?
Access 2000 or later, you can use the Date control's Conditional
formatting property.

In Design View, select the [DateField] control, then click on
Format + Conditional Formatting

Set the Condition1 Dropdown to
Expression Is
Set the expression to
DateDiff("m",[DateField],Date()) Between 0 and -6

Select the colors you wish.
Save the changes

What do you want to do if the expire date has already past?
You can adapt the above to handle that also.
