John,
Hard to know what the problem is without seeing what you have tried so
far. But personally, I would find it simplest to do the Conditional
Formatting of the FollowupDue control by referring back to the value of
the Closed field. In other words, the 3 conditions would be like this:
Expression Is: Date()-[Closed] Between 120 And 149
Expression Is: Date()-[Closed] Between 150 and 179
Expression Is: Date()-[Closed]>=180
Otherwise, I have misunderstood your requirement
Regards
Steve
