FORMULA TO ADD 8 WEEKS FROM A DATE WITH CONDITIONAL FORMATTING
Evening - I would like to set a formula to add 8 weeks from a date in another cell - I would ideally like this to turn red if it exceeds 8 weeks. Looked online and cannot fathom it out anyone help?

NikolinoDE Thank you I can this a try adding *8 (for eight weeks) and replacing the cell A1 with my reference cell. Unfortunately it fails with the error value - The blank cell has been set to date as the format so unsure why its failing.

It works for me... should see the file... or it's about a pivot table.
Attached is my example in the file.

sry...here is the correct file with the change that no error appears if the cell is empty.
=IF(A1="","",(A1+7*8))
- ByronJacksonAug 12, 2022Copper ContributorThank you I still must be doing something wrong. So My date reference is in A65 and set to 1st August 2022 - My cell where I want the formula to appear is at Q65 - I think I made the changes to do the above but for some reason its now blank. Sorry about this!
- NikolinoDEAug 12, 2022Gold ContributorUnfortunately, without a file or a picture of the error, I can't help you further. Recommend inserting the file (without sensitive data). Or you can send me a private message (see my profile) to see where the problem might be.
