How to Insert a Calendar in Google Sheets

Hi there! I’m Tracy, and today on Valadilene.org, we’re exploring a handy feature of Google Sheets: inserting a calendar. This is a neat tool that can serve a variety of purposes, from scheduling to project management. So, without further ado, let’s dive into the steps.

Step 1: Open Your Google Sheets Document

To get started, sign into your Google account and navigate to your Google Sheets. Open the sheet where you want to insert the calendar.

Step 2: Choose the Cell You Want to Insert the Calendar Into

Click on the cell where you’d like your calendar to appear.

Step 3: Go to the ‘Data’ Section

Upon selecting the cell, navigate to the ‘Data’ section in the upper menu.

Step 4: Click on ‘Data Validation’

This will open a new modal window where you’ll see criteria fields. Here, you can edit the data validation settings.

Step 5: Set Your Criteria

Select ‘Date’ as Criteria and set the parameters to suit your needs. The ‘On or after’ or ‘On or before’ options can be useful for range-setting.

Step 6: Save Your Settings

Once you’re satisfied with your settings, click ‘Save’. There you have it! You now have a fully functional calendar inserted into your Google Sheets.
