Automatic Update of Dropdown List?

inFormulas and Functions

I saw several discussions on this and I'm wondering if there is a formula or an easy way without a 3rd party to automatically update a dropdown list based on a cell in one sheet? I can create a helper sheet if that would help. Any ideas? I don't believe I have the premium Smartsheets plan.

Thank you!

You were, indeed, very close.<\/p>

It looks like you forgot to close out the AND <\/strong>funtion. Try this<\/p>

=IF([Invoice Received?]@row = 0, \"Green\", IF(AND([Renewal Date]@row >= TODAY(0), [Renewal Date]@row <= TODAY(+30)), \"Red\", \"Yellow\"))<\/code><\/p>
