Hello,
I'm trying to create a template for my son's preschool snack calender. There are about 25 children who are assigned a snack. It takes about 7 weeks to cycle through all the children. The children have different schedules, ranging from 3 to 5 days. The children that go 3 days a week are staggered through out the week.
To simplify, I've assigned each child a day of the week, and a set snack. For example, my son's snack day will always be raisins and wheat thins on a Tuesday. I have set up all this information on one worksheet.
The issue becomes more complicated when I try assigning the child's name and snack to a calender date. I tried setting up a template, but I still have to manually assign each day of the month to the calendar template. This would be cumbersome, but acceptable, if it weren't that when children leave or join the school, a lot of re-organizing needs to be done.
I would like to set up something like an if/else statement where it looks to see who the last child was assigned snack and then it chooses the next child on the list for that day of the week. When the final child on the list is assigned a date, I would like excel to look for the first child. Unfortunately, I'm not that skilled in programming. I know enough that I probably need an array, but have no idea how to begin doing one.
Any ideas?
