Excel - Conditional Formatting in Excel 2003

Asked By Jade Summers on 03-Aug-12 12:06 PM
Good day everyone,

I have an excel sheet to keep track of who has taken a course, when they
took it, which automatically calculates ten years from then for the
expirtation date.

My issue is even the blank cells for people who did not take the course
(H2 Expiry date) get affected by my conditional formatting and turn
green which is only supposed to be for dates 6 months past today and
over.

I want to make the blank cells in H to stay white, which my conditional
formatting is still effective for the other information.

Here are my formulas:

H2 to add 10 years to when they took the course
=IF(G2="","",DATE(YEAR(G2)+10,MONTH(G2),DAY(G2)))

Conditional formating
Green
=$H10>TODAY()+181

Red
=AND($H10>0,$H10<TODAY())

Yellow
=TODAY()-$H10<180

I know I am missing something obvious, and I thought I had already fixed
it but I cannot seem to figure it out.

Thank you for your help!
