"Mini-months" on calendar pages
I am making a photo calendar and want to print the calendar on 12 full
pages which will be opposite 12 full page photos. I downloaded the Microsoft Office template for "2006 calendar (basic)," version "Word 2000 or later." The template does not include the little versions of the previous and coming months on each monthly calendar page, and I would like to add those. I haven't seen a way to do this- I'd appreciate any help! |

For functions like this you might be happier with dedicated calendar
creation software such as Calendar Creator Plus from Broderbund. -- Suzanne S.

"Mini-months" on calendar pages
I might do that for next year's calendar, but I've already customized colors
and fonts, put in all the birthdays and other dates, etc. in this Word calendar for 2006 and was hoping there was a simple way to add the mini-months. Thanks for the tip though, I'll keep in in mind next year. "Suzanne S.

"Mini-months" on calendar pages
Hi Gal,
The 2006 basic calendar template http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT011653371033 doesn't leave a lot of room for adding the thumbnail calendars in with the format it uses and many of the other 'Word' templates use a lot of tiny tables for the individual months. That can make Word very slow to work and also can make trying to paste things rather 'difficult'. (Trying to copy a one month table from Word then using Edit=Paste special=Enhanced Metafile then resizing seems to lose some of the formatting lines from the original 'big' table). One of the things you may find useful is to download one of the Excel calendar templates such as this one. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT011653371033 It uses multiple Excel cells for each month. What you can do is apply your color choices in Excel to match what you've done in Word, then select a month, copy it and then go to Word and use Edit=Paste Special=Bitmap to put in a graphic of the calendar then resize it and position it to fit as you want. (Set Tools=Options=Edit to position graphics 'in front of text') Another choice would be to insert a link to each month's cell range in Excel from your Word calendar, but it may be a bit iffy to maintain your page layout. ======== "SoCalGal" wrote in message ...

"Mini-months" on calendar pages
Hi Bob,
I tried your suggestion using the Excel calendar template and copying and pasting into my Word calendar. It worked perfectly. Thank you so much- you da man!
