Populate dynamic calendar with table data
- Oct 06, 2021
Mthammon The calendar template you chose isn't well suited for what you have in mind. As most templates, it's packed with tricks and treats. This particular one is full of named formulae. Neat, but near to impossible to tweak without destroying something else. But, there are templates "out there" that can do what you need. Not too long ago, I adapted such a template for another user on this forum, though it uses the rather new FILTER function. The original template just highlighted that "something was due" on a particular date without specifying what. After my adaption it actually displays the assignment(s) due on a given day.
I took a few columns from your data sheet and dumped them in the template. See if it works for you (file attached). If not, keep searching for a better template.
Thanks again for this help!
I'm now customizing the calendar page and wondering how to duplicate a new formula in all the calendar cells (where to get the entries that show on the calendar) in some automated way? (besides copying and pasting each one...). I hope that makes sense.
Not sure what you have in mind. Best to start a new thread based on your specific situation and showing what you have customised already and you want next.
