Hello Folks.
I have a rather bad news for you. My internet service provider (TATA Photon) has mysteriously blocked chandoo.org. My site hasn’t been loading since Sunday. While I know it is up and running, I cannot see it unless I go thru a proxy server like kproxy.
It may take a couple of days for this to be resolved. I am using this time to take a break from blogging and read some books that have been waiting. I am almost done with Edward Tufte’s The Visual Display of Quantitative Information
and Walkenbach’s Excel 2010 Bible
. I will be reading Stephen Few’s Information Dashboard Design
and then Walkenbach’s Excel 2010 Power Programming
.
In the meanwhile I have a fun VLOOKUP contest for you.
All you need to do is, share a VLOOKUP trick or tip thru comments.
And the winner gets an iPod nano
. 8gb latest version.
Some rules to keep in mind:
- You have to post the entire tip in the comments. No links please.
- You can post as many tips as you want.
- You can post tips on VLOOKUP, INDEX – MATCH, OFFSET – MATCH, HLOOKUP, LOOKUP or lookups done using SUMPRODUCT
- Bonus karma & points for people making an example excel file & linking it along with the tip.
- Contest closes on October 12, End of day (Pacific time, why? because I love the big, blue ocean)
- Winner will be selected randomly.
Go!
Read these excellent articles explaining – VLOOKUP, OFFSET & MATCH, SUMPRODUCT.
PS: If you would like to sponsor this contest, just drop me an email at chandoo.d @ gmail.com

Hi,
I downloaded this 2025 Calendar template. I checked the custom tab. Is it possible to change the weekend Fri & Sat.
Thanks
It is. Just use the option for fri & sat weekend (should be 7).
Activities of some dates are not getting displayed on "Any month" and "printable calendar" sheets.
e.g. Activity of 24 Apr 25.
Can you check again? The date in "planner" sheet should be a proper date. When I tested with 24-apr-2025, it works.
Love this calendar... I have highlight planner dates enabled but all dates are blue, is it possible to customize the color based on the type assigned to each date?
What would be the right way to add more Holidays in the Customizations?
Inserting rows in the Holiday List causes the blank cells in the calendar to turn Blue.
This is amazing!!! The best I've seen so far!! Is it possible to update it to consider a column for the final date? That way, if an event lasts more than one day, it repeats in the calendar
How do we change/insert the customization "Icon Options" ?
You can adjust these from the settings tab.
Is there anyway this can turn into an academic calendar (ie. start month is July and runs all the way through June of next year)?
Is there a way to make it something that is more than a day without having to add it to every day of that week.
