    Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Hi All,

    I have a copy of a year planner that calculates the days of the month and adjusts them according to the year input into the header area.

    Would anyone please modify it so that the first column reads August and the last column reads July (instead of Jan to Dec) and still maintain the calculations as required?

    It will then be a viable academic calender.
    Thanks in advance.

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Hi,

    Sorry it took a time, but all you need to do is enter the start date in cell F45 and everything else will recalculate.

    Do you want row 2 to start at number 1 or the month number?

    Talking Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Thank you for the reply oldchippy. That does do what I need but in a different way
    Re: Row 2 - I'm not fussed about what's in Row 2.

    I've tried changing the info in cell B1 to reflect the academic year and it sends the values into spasm (ie when I change the "2009" to "2009-2010"). B1 still has a bearing on the calcs. I am trying to make it idiot proof so I can use it and pass it onto my colleagues so altering the info B1 year by year is the ideal solution. Even if B1 will only display the academic start year I can just add a text box to state the year displayed is the "Academic start year."

    Is there a solution?

    Best Regards

    EDIT: The September column only goes upto 28 days which has a knock on effect to the subsequent dates meaning they are incorrect.
    DOH! And the leap year is not detected anymore! I don't want much do I? :D

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    the second bit is at bottom of sheet you have the field where old chippy says enter start date
    the numbers c47:n47 must match the number of days in month so change them
    with the exception of february which needs this formula instead
    =28+FLOOR(1/(B1-FLOOR(B1/4,1)*4+1),1)

    It looking good but still carries a fault. Change the year in F45 to 2008 and then check May (2009). The bank holiday Monday was the 4th this year and not the 3rd :O

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    cant see how colour is put in cell if i change the colour it does so ,so its not done automatically by format.
    on my lotus organiser planner i have to manually put in bank hols. not to say it couldnt be done with a list of hols and cf but you have already reached max cf of 3 in some cells.

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Yes, I am on "planner" too.

    As the sheet stands (attached below) it has been modded as per the posts above. The displayed dates are correct but only for Year 2009-2010.

    If you change the year in Cell F45 to 2008 (for example) and then check a random date in 2009 (say May Day Bank holiday) you can see that the date is not correct (one day out infact). Change the year to 2010 and it also provides incorrect dates so I assume that it would not be correct for other years. It seems to be the dates in jan to july that are the problem.

    It does pick up the leap years now though.

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Hi Guy's

    I was trying to get it finished last night before going to bed and I see you may have spotted that February could have 31 days

    I've read thorough your posts and I've added Martin's formula

    ="- "& B1+1&" YEARPLANNER"

    And also altered the formula's in row 47 to get the dates per month

    Sgt.Trojan - you only need to enter your start date in cell F45 starting on the 1st

    Re: Year Planner Mod needed plz

    Hi guys,

    Sorry for the delayed response (been on holiday).
    Thanks for work completed so far but I've input 01/08/2010 into F45 and the planner displays August starting on the 2nd of the month and not the first.

    I can't see a way around this

    Hi,

    Is it worth looking at one of these and making it suit your requirements? May be the Yearly Calendar with Week Numbers?

    oldchippy old pal, old buddy, you've struck gold.

    I have added information to the other spread sheet you modded but can now just paste the text boxes into this one. Many thanks
