Can someone help me with a calendar to use in Excel that
can be formatted so as to show special dates, current
holidays, etc.  WARNING:  I need explicit instructions.  This
sort of stuff is not intuitive to me.

Thanks,
Dot

Hi Dot

can you give us a bit more of an idea of how you want the calendar to work
... do you just want to see a date and change the colour of the date to
indicate holidays etc,  or would you like the date and room to write notes
... what period of time are you looking at (1 month / 1 year ???), what do
you want to use the calendar for? Are you going to update the calendar in
Excel, or do you just want to print it out & stick it on the wall ... have
you got any other microsoft applications available to you that you could use
instead of excel (as there might be a better alternative depending on what
you want to do with it).

Cheers

I want to be able to update the calendar with personal
dates, have holidays show, be able to print it.  A month at
a time
is great.  I have a calendar for .xls from a Chip Pearson that
has 3 worksheets, but I haven't the faintest idea how to fix
a bug that comes up when I run it.

Thanks,
Dot

.When I open it, first it gives me the warning about
MACROS, which I "enable", then the debug windown comes up
with

Run-time error: 13
Type mismatch

Then when I debug, this part is highlighted

Range("StatusCell").Value = Format(TempDate, "mmm d, yyyy") _
           & "  " & Format(DayOfYear(TempDate), "##0") & _
           NumberSuffix(DayOfYear(TempDate)) & " day of
year." & _
           "  Days From Now: " & Format(DateDiff("d",
Now(), TempDate), "##,##0") & _
           "  (Workdays: " & _
           Format(Evaluate("NETWORKDAYS(" & """" &
Format(Now(), "mm/dd/yy") & _
           """" &
Application.International(xlListSeparator) & _
           """" & Format(TempDate, "mm/dd/yy") & """" &
")")) & ")"

What version of Excel are you using?  The Calendar file works
fine for me.

You MUST have the Analysis Tool Pak addin loaded to use the
Calendar file. Go to the Tools menu, choose Add Ins, and put a
check next to the Analysis Tool Pak.
