    Hi,

    I have created an excel spreadsheet which I would like to apply formatting to cells after a certain date has passed....if thats possible?

    So for example, A1 - E7 correspond to weekdays, I would like them to be shown with strikethrough text after each day has passed? I have had a look around the web and cant find an answer, maybe it cant be done but would be grateful for some help!

    Thanks :)

    I'm not sure what you mean by A1 - E7 corresponding to weekdays: presumably one row or column contains the date and the other rows or columns contain tasks or whatever for those dates?

    Anyway, here's an example. The Formula which you can't see all of is =$A2 < TODAY()

    You should be able to adapt this to your situation.
