How to Create a Fill-In Calendar in Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel provides time-saving calendar templates, including fill-in calendars, which enable you to enter reminders to keep you organized. Select a template that includes cells for monthly, weekly or daily entries. The templates copy to an Excel worksheet that you customize with the ribbon’s editing tools. Adjust the font size and background color, for example, to make your date entries more visible and meaningful to you as you and your colleagues plan your days ahead. You can also share your Excel calendar file when saved to a SkyDrive location or emailed as an attachment.
