Default Highlighting Holidays in a Range with dates

Memento,

I like this one a bit better:-

Sub highlight()
Dim MyRange As Range
Dim HolRange As Range
Set MyRange = Range("a1:a365")
Set HolRange = Range("B1:B13")
For Each datecell In MyRange
datecell.Select
For Each holcell In HolRange
If datecell.Value = holcell.Value Then
ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 7
End If
Next
Next
End Sub

Hello Guys,

I Have dates in the range D3:D369, from 1 jan to 31 dec (in that format).
Now I want to highlight the holidays in that range, but i'm having
difficulties with that.
I've created a collection, en i'm trying to use a For Each... Next to loop
through the range.

I also want this procedure to start automatically when i open up the
workbook, so in module 1 this doesn't seem to work, and I have no idea where
en how i should get this done...

What i've tried:

Sub Toef()
Dim hCollection As New Collection
Dim newyear, easter, daym, ascension, ... As String
Dim DateRange As Date
Dim allSheets As Worksheets
DateRange = allSheets.range("D3:D369").Select
newyear= "1 jan"
easter= "16 apr"
daym= "1 may"
ascension= "24 mei"
...
hCollection.Add (newyear)
hCollection.Add (easter)
hCollection.Add (daym)
hCollection.Add (ascension)
...

For Each DateRange In hCollection
DateRange.Item.Color = RGB(0, 255, 0)
Next DateRange.Item
End Sub

Thanks in advance guys,

Memento
