Learn a quick trick to automatically change the event colors in your calendar, accordingly to the text you are entering in the different cells.
You will use simple concepts like autofill, select all, and conditional formatting.
I hope this trick is something you can use in your projects so you get more with less effort.

Challenge - I have a spreadsheet that has events in columns and rows, but I want to auto-populate an excel based calendar, without having to cut and paste the values into the calendar. Auto-update of the spreadsheet changes would be a good bonus. I actually have to do multiple months, but If I can get one month to work. I can sort the spreadsheet into months and work it one month at a time. Thank you
Hi -= this is a great video, so well explained. I'd like to be able to do this for a 6 month calendar instead of monthly, is there a way to turn the formula function off once I've created the calendar so I can write in the same cell as the date?
Thanks! This is very useful.
Thank you so much for this info. Do you know how to copy a template and all the events from one year to the next
thank you for sharing this video.

Hi thank you so much, is it possible to have set dates for categories as well that way they auto populate into the calendar along with color ?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Very Nice. Question.. Is there a way to add up at the end of week or month how many Practices, Gym, ETC.. automatically?
This is Great! Thanks for the video. Is there any way to make this full page sized for printing? I would like to post this in my kitchen for my family, and I am having trouble trying to make it proportionally bigger to a full page with the template on the bottom.
Hello Mahnia. Thanks for watching. I'm glad to hear you liked it. You can adjust the size of your calendar easy.
First select the print area you want printed, and then go to the "Page Layout" tab and click on the "Print Area" button.
Then click on the "Size" button and select the size you need.
Finally, on the bottom right of the "Page Setup" group in the same tab you will see a small arrow pointing to the bottom right. Click on it to display the "Page Setup" window. In the "Scaling" section of the "Page" tab you will see the "Adjust to" button. Adjust the size of your print out until you are happy with it. I tried 135% and it fits an 8 1/2 x 11" sheet. Now, your printer, row heights and column widths will be different than mine, so just keep adjusting.
If you want my file, I can email it to you. Just send me your email address.
Thanks for watching.
Nicest content I've seen today.
Thanks a lot. It was helpful.

Hello sir please make a vedio regarding automatic school class schedule.
wow thank you so much
Great video. But is there a way to convert my data in a spreadsheet automatically into a calendar just like the one in the video? Thanks for any help.
I need this one thanks so much
How can I get excel to auto fill info. into a specific date cell based on the information entered in another dated cell? Its for a calendar schedule log & I dont want to have to enter followup appointments manually
When you enter items into cells can it be set so it has to be the exact word on your list that changes colour and not if a letter is in the text it changes
Amazingly explained. Would have been great with hours ( 9:30, 10:00, 10:30..) on the left side
Soo helpful!!!!
Super helpful!!!
Excellent video well explained
Many many thanks.
Thank you soooo much!!!!
Is there a way to filter this calendar by the 'type'; so for example if you only wanted to see the practices you had scheduled for the month.
Thank You!
Great!!
Hi. I’m trying to create a 365 day daily diary. I’m using 365 sheets in a workbook the main data is already copied in, I have sixteen people’s events to put in on each day. Some details require dates for future events put in. I’m hoping that the information can then carry over to the specific date of the appointment when that day arrives. Also I would like to be able to create a sheet that can take me to a specific date. I think it’s a pivot chart, but I can’t get my head around it. If what I have asked makes sense, can you help somehow.
Hi, is it possible to allow for more than one colour coded event to show up in one cell? My Calendar is more of a booking system where people can book the same day and time.
How did you turn the colours on and off in starting of the video?
Dude, your awesome
Thank you!!!!!
Thank sir. 😁👍🇵🇭🤓
