Help with Dynamic Calendar_Incorrect Event Text Color

Hello Everyone, I've created a dynamic calendar in Excel, but I'm having trouble with the text color of my event labels.
The goal is to have the event text for the current selected month displayed in dark black, while the text for events in the previous and next month should be in gray.

However, despite my efforts, the text for the current month is still showing as gray, not dark black as intended. I suspect I might have missed something in my conditional formatting or formulas.

I have attached a sample file for reference. Here is what I've tried so far:

• Using conditional formatting to change the color of the text based on the selected month.
• Tried applying different formulas to check if the cell date belongs to the current, previous, or next month.

Could anyone help me identify what I might be missing or suggest a solution?

Thanks in advance for your help!
