I have made a calendar in excel that i really like. Everyday when I open
that calendar I want it to show the current date how do i do this. Or can i
make it so that it highlights the cell in my calendar of the day it is.

thanks

You can do either, if you want today's date you can use =TODAY()
in a cell and then just add the days so if A2 is today's date A3 might be
A2+1 etc or you can use conditional formatting and a fixed dates, select all
dates and assume A2 is the active cell (the cell where you first selected
from), then use formatconditional formatting , formuoa is and

=A2=TODAY()

then click the format button and select a pattern and click OK twice

try these cell formulas:

=TODAY() 'gets you the date
=NOW() 'gets you the date and time
=WEEKDAY(serial number, return type) 'gets you the day of the week as
an index number; see Help

then try this formula:

=CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),1), "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday",
"Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday")
