It is Thanksgiving day weekend for our friends & readers in USA. That means a good portion of our readers are relaxing with their family and having a good meal. Naturally, we celebrated thanksgiving at our home (we pretty much celebrate any festival as long as eating good food is one of its rituals). I am too tempted to leave the blog un-updated until Tuesday next week, but then I remembered about remaining good portion of our readers, that is you.
So, here is a simple quiz for you.
Find in which year thanksgiving day occurs on the same date again
using Excel Formulas, of course.
See this short demo to understand what I have in mind:

Thanksgiving day is celebrated on 4th Thursday in November, every year. See how to calculate Thanksgiving day using excel formulas.

I am not getting sound from the videos. I have checked all the settings and spent several hours searching the Internet to no avail.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Is there anyway to get the Grand Total to be broken out in the same fashion as the items above it? For instance, if you have in column 1, widget a, widget b, and have their sales by month in column 2, I'd like to see the grand total also be by month, for widget a & b combined.
I can't get anything other than a single line for the grand total, rather than the same format as the data above.
Widget A Month Sales
Jan 100
Feb 200
Widget B
Jan 150
Feb 250
Grand total - here I would also like to have Jan, Feb.
Jan 250
Feb 450
