    updating the color of the cell based on the date

    Hi team,

    I publish daily sales every day for the mgmt review.

    It has one row that shows actual, business plan and ly no.

    I need a conditional formatting to turn the cell blue if the date is today's date.

    and it will turn the yesterday date to cell without blue background.

    Can someone please guide me thru the process ?

    Regards

    Adnan

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.
