Hi,

I'm looking for a way in excel to color cells on any dates that have
elpased more then 30 days. Can anyone help me with this.

Thanks for your help
 
Use Conditional Formatting

Look Under Format, Conditional formatting
 
Marc,

You can use Conditional Formatting (CF) from the Format menu to
do this. Open the CF dialog, change "Cell Value Is" to "Formula
Is" and enter the following for the formula:

=(TODAY()-A1)>30

Change A1 to the address of the cell containing the date.
