Cold flu sheet

Copper Contributor

I've had a number of colds and after covid, I was thinking I would like to record over the course of a year when I have a cold. I wasn't sure how I should be inputting my data into a sheet. I wanted to add date, with a range of how long I had a cold. Then a column graph of those spikes when I had a cold in a year. I am a pretty basic excel user. I was wondering if anyone can give me some some suggestions on how to setup my sheet.

 

Be much appreciated, thank you.

Check out the attached workbooks. The area highlighted in green is where you enter the data.

@HansVogelaar You have literally put a whole year down of dates, is the a quick way to do that?

I entered the 1st of January. With that cell selected, I clicked Fill > Series... in the Editing group on the Home tab of the ribbon.

In the dialog, I selected Columns, and entered the 31st of December in the "Stop value" box, then clicked OK.
