    Conditional formatting: showing difference of 21 days or more

    Conditional formatting does not work.
    I'm trying to make it look like in picture (both are fine) but it does not work. What is wrong and how to make it work?

    I need formatting when difference between dates is 21 days or over.

    In the Book1.xlsx has a way I tried to do it; Conditional formatting rules manager and formula =ABS($A:$B)>=21

    CF rule for A2:

    =AND($C2>=21,$C2<>"")

    Applies to: =$A$2:$C$7
