I am trying to highlight any fields where the date has past and use the following in Properties - Textbox - Background Colour.

=iif(Fields!OverdraftLimitExpiryDate.Value < today(),"red","transparent")

This works fine but if the account does not have a date it also records in RED.

How do I get it to only colour if there is a date and not colour if there is no date?

put in an "and" condition of "and expirydate is not blank".
am not familiar with the syntax....but have a go and post any efforts if stuck.

=iif(Fields!OverdraftLimitExpiryDate.Value Is Nothing,"transparent",iif(Fields!OverdraftLimitExpiryDate.Value < today (),"red","LightGreen"))
