Need formula for Conditional Formatting

Copper Contributor

I am in need of a formula for conditional formatting that can fill in a cell in column U or N when there is no date and the corresponding date in M or N has past.  

I need a formula for conditional formatting that can identify cells in columns U or V (without dates in them) that are overdue as specified in Columns M or N.

Select U4:V1000 (or however far down the data go). I will assume that U4 is the active cell within the selection.

On the Home tab of the ribbon, select Conditional Formatting > New Rule...

Select 'Use a formula to determine which cells to format'.

Enter the formula

 

=AND(U4="",M4<TODAY())

 

Click Format...

Activate the Fill tab.

Select a highlight color.

Click OK, then click OK again.
