    Activating only the last 30 days in Excel Calendar?

    I'm trying to create a data collection tool in a research study that will only provide the last 30 calendar days from the date it is opened. I'm using Excel Calendar, and I put the information for the date ranges in two cells on the side of the calendar, where the 30-day period start date is L4 (4,12) and end date is in L3 (3,12). I want to lock and black-out the calendar days that are not within that 30-day range to minimize confusion and error.

    I pasted what I wrote into VBA so far. I practiced with 4 consecutive calendar days (all in row 6), where 2 of them should have been blacked out because they were outside of the 30-day range.

    (Note: each calendar cell has two blank cells below it for data entry, which is why I want to lock and blackout 3 cells at a time for each calendar day.)

    None of this has worked. I'm not sure if I'm getting the DateValue Function wrong, or if I'm missing something else. I was hoping to eventually use a Loop function once I got this step figured out, but I haven't even gotten the first part down...

    Any help would be much appreciated!!!

    Initially, I did not understand that cross-posting within a short timespan is not recommended. I'm under a bit of a time crunch and wanted to figure this out as efficiently as possible. Now I understand that sharing the cross-post URLs is part of that process. Thanks!

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not crosspost your question on multiple forums without including links here to the other threads on other forums.

    Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

    Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

    Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).
