TECH-016 - Create a countdown calendar and combine it with conditional formatting for each task
YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ALL MY FILES FOR FREE AT www.theexcelchallenge.com
Learn how to create a countdown calendar that allows you to know the days left to a specific date.
You will also learn how to combine the countdown calendar with cells that have conditional formatting according to the countdown.
The cells can be modified, and the conditional formatting remained untouched. Both the countdown calendar and the conditional formatting pivot around the TODAY formula, which we use in this video.
This video also shows an example of conditional formatting values vs. conditional formatting formulas.
I hope this concept is something you can use in your daily routine so you get more with less effort.

Hey! Greeeaat Video! Can I do that with hours?
Is there a way to do with time, as in hours and minutes? For example, If I place a bid on an item and the item's bid expires at 4:30pm on Oct 10th (and today is the 5th), is there a way to make a countdown timer for this?
Could you create a tracker that automatically updates when tracking due outs by the categories: OVERDUE, less than 29 days out, 30+ days out, 60+ days out and 90-120 days out? The columns would have other topics like dates, names and what is due

Hello Werner, Use the LEFT, MID, and RIGHT formulas. LEFT will give you the 1. MID will give you the 2, 3, and 4. RIGHT will give you the 5. Try that. Thanks T-E-CH

Challenge !!!!!!!!! How is it possible to color only the date in the specific cell at a specific place, but the date is not hard coded. it is showing with formatting... so, for example how can you highlight just the dates in this formula but not other text. ="Time Sheet from "&TEXT(A5,"dd/mm/yyy")&" to "&TEXT(A6,"dd/mm/yyy") of course A5 and A6 have two different dates.
plese help, it gives me a date instead of a number

Hello Hunter. Right click on the cell (or cells) with the problem and go to Format Cells. Once there, select a different format than date, like “regular number” and that should resolve your problem. Thanks for watching T-E-CH
