Select the whole block of 5 columns and X rows. (Your active cell should
be in the top row, so select it from top left to bottom right)
In conditional formatting choose New Rule (or manage rules, whichever)
then choose 'Use a formula to determine which cells to format'.
In the field 'Format values where this formula is true' enter the likes
of the following (column D was my 4th column, my table being A1:E13)
paying attention to the placing of the $ sysmbols):
=AND(TODAY()>$D1,$D1<>"")
Adjust the formatting to be applied and click OK, twice. QED.
