Paste this *=DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),7,2)* (then press enter)in your first
cell that has the date (change the month and day if need be) then copy
across, all the cells you copied across to should now be highlighted,
right click in the highlighted section then choose Format Cells (around
half way down under Insert Comment in excel 2007) and follow the
formatting i gave you, i could give back your workbook done for you,
however, you still won't know how its done then and will face similar
problems in the future

Alice, don't forget all your month sheets are the same structure so you
can edit the sheets as a whole group to save you doing them one by one!

Alice, i have changed the formula slightly and made use of cell A1, A1
now houses a number (1 - 12) this is the number of the month, if you
don't wish to see that number then right click Format CellsCustom and
in the box type ;;; the number will always be there just not visible
unless you select the cell.

See the attached (your workbook), you need to complete the pattern for
each month for the number of days in the month but it's nearly all done
for you!

I am really really sorry but I am just not understanding this
........when i put the =DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),7,2) into cell 1B and i am
not sure how you mean copy along the rest .............I know I am
trying the patience of a saint here but if you could just persevere
with me a little longer maybe , just maybe I might get the hang of
this........emb1

Alice

Hi Alice, i have made some changes and completed most of the sheets for
you, check out post 17 here
http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/284615-post17.html download the
attachment which is your workbook with the formulae inserted etc, you
need to finish each sheet of to the end of each month (just a few days)
that will help you understand what i've done!
