Strike my reply to your answer Mark. I just found a link to conditional
formating and, WOW, what a powerful tool. Great suggestion! Now my weekdays
are black with Green background and the weekends are white with red
backgrounds. More than I had in mind.
If I did this right the link that I followed was
http://www.contextures.com/xlCondFormat01.html
if not, then this is the webpage I used. (Like I said, I am not much of a
programmer, typical 52 year old who didn't get his first computer till he was
40'ish)
Thanks again Mike.
