Conditional formatting help

mac0341 It was more helpful for me to add an actual date column and then use the date to parse the day of week and the day of month. The "applies to" in the conditional format is the area below the date information, and you can see the formula I used as the rule.

HansVogelaar I have a formula to populate the days in I6 =LEFT(TEXT(I7,"ddd"),1) based off of the date that I have in I7 which is 8/4/2022, then there is a formula to generate the numbers of the month.
