Select the cells that contain the document due dates.

Choose Conditional Formatting from the Format menu. Excel displays the Conditional Formatting dialog box.

Make sure the first drop-down list is "Cell Value Is." (This should be the default.) (See Figure 1.)   Figure 1. The Conditional Formatting dialog box.



Make sure the second drop-down list is "Less Than."

In the formula area, enter "=TODAY()" (without the quote marks).

Click the Format button. Excel displays the Format Cells dialog box. (See Figure 2.)   Figure 2. The Format Cells dialog box.



Using the Color drop-down list, choose the color red.

Click OK to close the Format Cells dialog box.

Click Add. The Conditional Format dialog box expands to include a second condition.

Make sure the first drop-down list for the second condition is "Cell Value Is." (This should be the default.)

Make sure the second drop-down list is "Less Than."

In the formula area, enter "=TODAY()+7" (without the quote marks).

Click the Format button. Excel displays the Format Cells dialog box.

Using the Color drop-down list, choose the color blue.

Click OK to close the Format Cells dialog box. (See Figure 3.)   Figure 3. The finished Conditional Formatting dialog box.



Click OK to close the Conditional Formatting dialog box.
