conditional formatting & time stamp

A

Alib

Hello everybody this is my firs post and I do appreciate you help.

I am trying to set up conditional formatting so that after the 5th of
every month the cell’s text becomes red, regardless of month or year. I
have bean able to set it up for a specific date mm/dd/yy but this
unfortunately does not help in my particular instance. I need to some
how specify to excel that neither the month nor the year are relevant
only the day of the month.

Also is there a way to time stamp the date you made an entry into a
cell? For example I receive a check and input the check amount into the
appropriate cell, I than put the date received in the neighboring cell.
What I am looking for is ways to automate this process by excel
automatically dating the entry for me.

Use this in the CF Formula is Option to color your cell Red if the

=DAY(A12)>5

Cheers,

or maybe it should be

=DAY(TODAY())>5
