The end of 2010 is fastly approaching. With Microsoft Word you can make your own monthly calendar. There are two ways to create a monthly calendar in Microsoft Word:
1. The first is to choose a Word template of Microsoft Word 2007. Click on the Start button, go to All programs, select Microsoft Office, and choose Word.
Then, go to the Office button, which is the round button at the top, and then click on New.
Now, under Microsoft Office Online, select Calendars.
This opens up a grouping of calendars. Here are some build in templates for calendars that you can use. Have a look at the available templates. Microsoft has installed a bunch of templates; also it gives you the opportunity to upload templates. In this category you can use all sorts of nicely calendar formats, from simple to exotic. Click on one template, and then click on Download button. Microsoft Office will download it right on your blank page depending, of course, on how fast your connection is, it will take longer or shorter. When the downloading is done, you have a calendar. You can change the calendar’s photo if you don’t like it. Take out the photo and put in the photo that you like. This type of calendar is nice if you want to print it out and hand it on the wall.
2. However, most people like to use calendar to store information: put the dates on; doctors’ visits…things like that. To do that you must to download a simple calendar, or without downloading, you can just do the same thing in the Microsoft Office directly. Open a blank page, and make it landscape (typically you want something in landscape when you want a lot of space).
Then Insert a table with seven columns, one for each day of the week, and six rows.
Take the first row and click on the Layout tab , and select Merge Cells, that means merge the top row so that you can type in the month and the year, and you can Bold it, make it bigger or smaller, or just do any kind of form that you want to do.
Then on very column type the week days: Sunday, Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Then, type in the days of the month (1 to 28, 29, 30 or 31) using the Tab key to move to the next cell. Do the same for every month of the year, and then insert the information that you need on your own monthly calendar.11
