Flagging dates with conditional formatting

[Cinder the Dog]

I am trying to set up conditional formatting so that it flags me when it is
within 3 months & 1 month of a date. For example, I have a list of the dates
each of my staffs' CPR certifications are to expire. If it expires on
10/1/09, I would like the cell to turn yellow on 7/1/09, and red on 9/1/09.
The expiration date will be different for each staff member in each row.

Thanks

As I kept searching through all the info on this site, I came across this
answer which worked:

Try the triplets below as the CF "Formula Is" for Conditions 1 to 3
Select col B (with B1 active), then apply the CF:
=AND($B1>TODAY(),$B1<=TODAY()+60)
=AND($B1>TODAY()+60,$B1<=TODAY()+90)
=AND($B1>TODAY()+90,$B1<=TODAY()+120)
Format each to taste

If i have a date in column A and have a formula that calculates 90 days from
that date to Column B and I want to add conditional formatting to Column B
that flags 120, 90, and 60 days from the column B date how would I go about
doing that?

Hi,

Fir the 3 month (Yellow) fkag use this CF

=DATE(YEAR(A2),MONTH(A2)-3,DAY(A2))<=TODAY()

and for the red 1 change -3 to -1 and add a second cf
