I am working on a spreadsheet that logs the dates parts were sent out and would like to apply conditional formatting to the dates.
I would like if over 3 years ago, if over 2 years ago, if over 1, if this year... then format appropriately. I have looked around Google and found some formulas but not the ones I need/work. So far I have this, but it doesn't work as expected:
3 years : =TODAY()-$E$26<=1065
2 years : =TODAY()-$E$26<=730
1 year : =TODAY()-$E$26<=365
This year: =TODAY()-$E$26<=1
I fixed the years by changing the < sign to >, my mistake - but am still having trouble with the if this year. I would expect something like if < 365 to work, but it doesn't. For example, May 2011 is displaying the formatting for less than a year, even though it's not.
