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 John Eget wrote: > I have a report that displays a derived date (FollowupDue) which is > calculated as (=DateAdd("d",180,[Closed])) that I would like to provide > conditional formatting for. > > What I want to do is - If the date is between 120 to 149 then display the > date as Green, if between 150 to 179 then Yellow, and finally if equal to or > greater that 180 display the date as Red.
