    THIS VIDEO IS A GAME CHANGER!!!!!! I WAS LOOKING TO DO THIS BUT DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO. NOW I DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU. It was a bit fast for a beginner like me but I re-watched to figure it out. But it would be great if it only displays the exact days of the month.

    Thank you so much for this. You are a huge help! Explaining the errors in the formula and adding little tweaks to make it look better too. Quick question: I've been trying to modify my calendar using checkboxes for finished tasks and using conditional formatting that greys out the task in the calendar but I can't seem to make it work. Hoping you could help!

    Another great video. I did have some questions. 1)with this calendar if you go to feb =#Value I am wondering how fix this for when feb 25 arrives? 2)I feel this is going to be a duh question, but after added in columns Conditional format for greying out previous month and next month I am having difficulty with. I feel I am just missing a simple step that is completely illuding me. I am definitely looking forward to more info on the recurring events.

    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  2 дні тому

      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.

    I'm having just a small issue after adding the new columns. I can't get the formatted condition to work properly (regarding the light grey for the other months).
    I have 2 columns and 5 lines for each day and the formatted condition for the day itself works fine, but when I try to bring it for the lines below, it doesn't work properly on them. Any tips?

    Hi! Love your content , one question, will the calendar change accordingly while transitioning to another month or do we need to do that manually? (changing the month manually from October to November)
    If no, how do we do that automatically :)

    • @HashAliNZ
      @HashAliNZ  24 дні тому

      In this video, I've made it so you need to manually select the month. This takes like two clicks. However, in the follow-up video for recurring items (coming soon - I've just had a bit of a setback with it!), I'll include a segment showing how to do it automatically.

  • @katiecot87
    @katiecot87 2 місяці тому +2

    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..😊

      Sorry I missed your comment, Katie. The formula gets quite complex when adding in that fix. Here it is:
      =if(and(day(floor(date($C$3,month($C$2&1),1)-(weekday(date($C$3,month($C$2&1),1))-if($H$2="Monday",1,0)-column($E$3)/3)))>1,

    Hi Hash, this is so helpful! Thanks so much! I just got a question, with this "date($C$2,month($C$3&1),1)-( weekday(date($C$2,month($C$3&1),1))-if($B$7="Monday",1,0)-column(A3))", the tables changes according to the Monday/Sunday chosen, but for example, Dec 2024, chose "Monday", the starting date of the month table will be "2/12/2024" instead of "1/12/2024" which only works when click 'Sun'. (and it's like that for the month of Jan 2023). Is there a way I can make the table always show the full dates of the month whether start date of the week be "Mon" or "Sun"? Very appreciated!!

    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  Місяць 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

    I set it to Monday and using everything exactly as you did, the first date rurns to Mon, 26/09??.🥺 Please advise. I only want a formula , so that i can choose between Monday and Sunday, the dates are correctand then I'll see to it that the dates only start showing
    for the current month. 😀🥰

    • @HashAliNZ
      @HashAliNZ  Місяць тому +1

      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
