Modify Existing Calendar Template
Thank you for your willingness to help. I apologize for the delayed response but I have attached the file that I am working with. Just to give an example,there is a tradeshow in Paris June 19-25. I can't figure out the correct formula to have the start date and end date highlighted on the June tab.
If I were in your shoes, this is a case where--devoted to Excel though I am--I'd use something else. Excel is powerful, but it's not at its best in some tasks, even if it could be coached and coaxed and tweaked into accomplishing it.
The thing you're trying to do is a breeze in my Mac's built-in calendar software. Unless I'm mistaken, it would be in MIcrosoft Outlook, Google calendar, and so on. There are also calendar templates in Word and PowerPoint: I just looked at them, and probably would find one of the Word templates easier to use for your purpose here, with making various highlights for industry shows during the year. A lot more variety is possible with colors, text... You would have to put the show into each date manually....
This template isn't built for multiple day events; it's mainly (in my humble opinion) something great for entering family birthdates, and the like...not as a planner for industry events.
- Thank you for your suggestions and assistance. I'll look into using something else.
