I am attempting to create a conditional formatting that changes the color of a shape based on if it is in the same month as this month. I have discovered the NOW constant to be used in formulas but I can't figure out how to use the formula Month(NOW) in conditional formatting. This image should give an idea of how I think it should work.
I figured it out. You have to use a formula as the data source as value is read as a string literal and not interpreted as a formula even if you use curly braces. It might be nice to be able to use curly braces for a formula anywhere in the program. The formula ended up looking like: WEEK(DATE(YEAR(NOW)@"Ship By Month"@"Ship By Day"))=WEEK(NOW)
