MODIFYING THE CALENDAR
With a few modifications, the calendar will be much more useful for entering information. The entire calendar is a table with each cell representing one day, which makes the modifications very easy to do.
Note: The blue lines shown below are non-printing gridlines, which are displayed using the VIEW GRIDLINES button on the Table Layout ribbon. The black lines are BORDERS that will print.

1. Select the entire table and add INSIDE BORDERS using the button on the TABLE DESIGN ribbon.
2. Change the look and placement of the date numbers by modifying the BOXES11 STYLE to 18 PT. font size and setting the ALIGNMENT to LEFT. |
