Default How do I do a drop down box with calender in excel?

I want a drop down box that shows the current month calender that I can
choose a particular date to be inserted into my excel sheet. Any ideas would
be great.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

The main question is: "How deep you intend to dig" ?
If you want it simple - try the following suggestion.
1) Column D is the List source of cells B3 'Data Validation'
2) Col. D can be Hidden but not deleted.
3) The dates will, Automatically, update on every 1st. of month.
4) As there always are at least 27 days, and not more than 31, in any month,
the formulas get a little bit "tricky" in the last 3 cells.

"at least 27 days" is a typo.
It should read: "at least 28 days"
