Conditional Formatting within a date range

Our take

Creating a heat map for missing timecard data using conditional formatting can be a powerful way to visualize gaps in attendance. To highlight the relevant cells in columns C to Z based on the specified date range in columns A and B, you can set up conditional formatting rules that check if the dates in row 2 fall within the range defined by those columns. This approach allows you to easily identify missing data for specific weeks, such as February, while excluding other months.

I am building a heat map for missing timecard data by weeks. The weeks missing data are in column C->Z.

Cell C2 is Jan 2nd, D2 is January 9th, etc

I am trying to apply conditional formatting to the data in cells C3-Z3.

But only if the date in row 2 falls within a separate date range in columns A/B.

For example if someone was scheduled to work only in February, cell A3 would be Feb 1st and cell B3 would be Feb 28th.

I want apply conditional formatting for the C->Z data to the right for February but not Jan/March/etc.

Is it possible to do that?
