Hi Guys,

I am using a calendar pop up window in Excel spreadsheet to select dates. When i upload the file on to Google Docs, the settings get changed and i have to manually enter the dates.

The file attached shows how i select dates in Excel sheets from cell A2 to A20.

The code i have been using in excel is given below. However this code gives the error:
Missing ; before statement. (line 2)

Functioning code in Excel is as below-
Private Sub Calendar1_Click() ActiveCell.Value = CDbl(Calendar1.Value) ActiveCell.NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yyyy" ActiveCell.Select End Sub Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub If Not Application.Intersect(Range("A1:A20"), Target) Is Nothing Then Calendar1.Left = Target.Left + Target.Width - Calendar1.Width Calendar1.Top = Target.Top + Target.Height Calendar1.Visible = True ' select Today's date in the Calendar Calendar1.Value = Date ElseIf Calendar1.Visible Then Calendar1.Visible = False End If End Sub


Please help fix the issue or suggest a substitute way to do the same.

Thanks.
