    Hey just a quick question at 20:33 you managed to fix your REF error by adding more rows, but mine comes up with an error for the next collom instead, or if it is about the rows a new row is only a tempowary fix or doesnt work at all. Is there anywau to fix this, it occurs when i try to add an event on, even when i have multiple separate rows for a day, it just seems to be an issue with 'overwriting data in ___' and im not sure how to fix it any advice?

    What an amazing video and tutorial! Its really easy to follow up.
    Wanted to ask: what if i would like for the calendar to highlight vacations dates on the calendar? Ex: If i add a "from" date and a "to" date, the days in the middle to be highlited? Probably this will be the next tutorial and talking about "frequency" but im a little stuck on this. Hope you could help me.

    • @HashAliNZ
      @HashAliNZ  Місяць тому +1

      The next one about frequency will be recurring items. Like something that comes about weekly or monthly. For holidays that are just single days, that can just be added to the list of recurring events. For multi-day vacations with a from and to would be much more difficult. I'll see what I can do, but no promises and it won't be in the next two videos.

    This is awesome, thank you! One issue I've encountered: when adding an offset for using Monday as Day 1, this sometimes creates the bug that you lose Day 1 from the calendar altogether, and the month starts on Monday, Day 2. I think we saw this in your vid for Sep 2024, any ideas how to get round this?

    If using Monday as the start day of the week, how do I still display the first of the month (on the Sunday)? As per your video at ~5min18sec - the first day displayed in your calendar is Monday 02/09 but I want to be able to include a row above only display Sunday 01/09 at the end of the table.
    Hope that makes sense..😊

    hi there, this has been very helpful. but ive got issues when i wanted to do conditional formatting to grey out the dates. ive tried =day(b6)>7 but somehow there are couples of cells are being highlighted as well. could u please help? thanks!
    and im curious as to why you changed the A3 to E3? what if i only add 1 more columns? should i change the A3 to B3 then divide it by 2 instead?

    • @HashAliNZ
      @HashAliNZ  2 місяці тому +1

      Hey Regina,
      It's difficult to tell why the day(B6)>7 would be greyed out for cells that are less than 7. I'd need to dive it to find out..
      Watching the video back, it probably would've made more sense to change A3 to C3 because I put in 3 columns between each day of the week. I wouldn't have needed the FLOOR function if I used C3 instead.. Yes, if you add one more column, then change A3 to B3 and divide by 2. You got it!

    Hello! When I apply the formula to my calendar, I get a #calc! rather than a #na with it saying empty array/empty arrays not supported. I'm stumped on how to clear those cells similar to how you would clear #na. The dates that need to be filled work correctly and I'm pulling data from a separate sheet on the same excel file using a different calendar layout which spreads the months over 12 different sheets if that effects anything

      Looks like you've got a bracket in the wrong place. Inside your weekday function you've got DATE($A$3)
      Dont close the bracket there.
      Also, you need a bracket for the COLUMN function at the end of your formula
