No, I am not too sure how to name the range - what I have done is named range
X5:AC33 as DataTable but only the first row X5:Ac5 works?

If the entire range of cells A2:E30 (in this example) is named
"DataTable", the code will work. Do you know how to name this range so
that all 29 rows of five cells are included?

Mark,

This has worked but only for the 1st row and for January calendar. Do I
have to repeat the code you provided a few times to cover all 29 rows?

One slight change that will delete a color if a date no longer appears
in your table.

If rngCell.Value = row.Cells(4).Value And _
rngCell.Value <= row.Cells(5).Value Then
' Use same color for this date on calendar
rngCell.Interior.ColorIndex = _
row.Cells(1).Interior.ColorIndex
Else
' Added this line
rngCell.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
End If

Also, you mentioned wanting this to happen automatically when you enter
a date. Depending on what else you have going on in the spreadsheet,
you may not want this to happen, but you could use the worksheet's
Change event to automatically trigger a macro like this to run whenever
you change a cell value.

Say your 29 rows of data are in cells A2:E30 and that this range is
named "DataTable" (column headers are directly above this). Also, say
your calendar (I will just assume it has January for this example)
dates are in cells G2:M6 and that this range is named "Calendar" (the
word January is centered in the cells above this).

The following macro worked for me to color your cells.


Option Explicit

Sub ColorCalendar()

Dim row As Range
Dim rngCell As Range

For Each rngCell In Range("Calendar").Cells
If Len(rngCell.Value) < 0 Then

' Cell is not blank
For Each row In Range("DataTable").Rows

' See if this date falls between Start and End Dates
If rngCell.Value = row.Cells(4).Value And _
rngCell.Value <= row.Cells(5).Value Then

' Use same color for this date on calendar
rngCell.Interior.ColorIndex = _
row.Cells(1).Interior.ColorIndex
End If
Next row
End If
Next rngCell

End Sub


Put actual dates on your calendar and format them as "d".

Hi, I have been searching hi and low for a solution to this and beginning to
think it may not be possible, please help you are my last hope.

I have a worksheet that has a 12 month calendar on it formatted as below:

January

1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8 9 10 11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
22 23 24 25 26 27 28
29 30 31

1. I have 5 columns in the same worksheet:

No. Training Title Description Start Date End Date
1 Excel Pivot Table 06/07/06 08/07/06

The No. & Training Title columns are colour filled (there are 29 rows with
different colours)

2. When inputting the start and end date I would like the calendar to
automatically fill with the same colour as in the No. and Training Title.

3. How can I format the numbers in the calendar so that they are recognised
as dates?

Thanks
