    How do I change the colour of cells based on a start and end date?

    I am trying to set up a resource labour sheet using excel.

    Instead of manually shading the cells myself, it would be great if I could configure excel to do it for me- based on the start date and end date of a given task.

    -Please see the attached excel sheet as an example.

    Not sure if this can be done, any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Luke

    Select all the cells and use CF Formula:
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =AND(D$1>=$B3,D$1<=$C3)
