Formula help please!

I am having the most difficult time creating a formula for an action, I am very hopeful someone here can help. I  want to apply conditional formatting so that: if K2=0 and G2=<04/15/2019, J2 will have green fill and bold type. I cannot wrap my head around why I cannot get this correct. Someone please help! THANK YOU!

    Hi, I think you'll need to put the date in as a number, so:

     

    =AND(G2<43570,K2=0)

     And make sure G2 is formatted as a date.

      JWR1138 First of all, thank you for replying! Unfortunately, when I use the formula as suggested, it still is not working correctly. I just don't understand why I am having such a difficult time with this. . .

        Attached is a sample where this should be working, is your data private or can you post a sample of your workbook?
