Formatting

[Philip Drury]

Have a spreadsheet that is being used to record customer enquiries, have used
conditional formatting to change the colour of the row if the enquiry goes
over a set amount of days - however, have been asked to change the
spreadsheet so that when the user enters a completion date in the relevant
cell, the row will turn grey and the conditional formatting ignored. Can
anyone help me with this?

Set two conditions - the first if there's a completion date, turning the
row grey, the second changing the color if the enquiry's over the limit.

Try making the 1st one now become the second one

The conditional formatting is set that if the enquiry is within 5 days of
todays date the row is green, if it is between 5 & 7 the row is amber and
then it turns red if the enquiry date is over 7 days - the downside to this
is that any rows without any data entered are red all the time! Conditional
formatting will only allow 3 conditions so I am at a loss how to make the row
turn greay when the user enters a completion date, does that make sense?
