Create calendars as Microsoft Access reports or PDF files. Specify month and year, number of months, first day for the week. Calendars display in the language defined in your Windows Region settings. Print however many months you want, such as 12 for a full year, on one or more pages depending on number of months and calendars per page. Show data from your queries. Open calendars in Access, send to printer, or create a PDF to show in a PDF reader or a web browser.
Use queries to show additional information such as holiday names and other calendar data from your database such as appointments, birthdays, schedules for your favorite sport or the ballet! whatever you want to see.
Create a Title to specifically describe displayed information.
There is lots of sample data for you to play with and get ideas from! Look at the sample queries to see how they're done, and read the Query Fields section. Turn your date-dependant data into easy-to-read calendars!
All you need to incorporate these calendars into your application is 4 modules. Calendars are scaled and positioned by VBA. There can be one or many per page.
So, you don't need this database to use the CalendarMaker! The download database has a form to make it easier to launch various calendar reports, and different report examples have VBA to position calendars, and loop, if there is more than one per page. However, you can just import the modules you need into your application, and put the logic you need into the code behind your reports.

The CalendarMaker is written in VBA and runs in Microsoft Access. It uses Report .Line and .Print methods to do all the drawing and writing. Calendars can be scaled and positioned, so you could show multiple calendars on each page.
The default report type on the menu is full-page calendars, but you can choose something else, like multiple calendars on each page in rows and columns, which can be customized. Be sure to open only one calendar report at a time. They all use the same variables.
When the CalendarMaker application opens, one click of a button is how fast its possible to get a calendar for the current month that you can print. There could be more information on each day, but nothing was specified. Sometimes this is exactly what you want, so you can handwrite with pencil or pen, and plan or document.
Alternatively, maybe it's a misphrased search due to a translation error or misspellings. The user might be trying to find a person or a service, but the combination is confusing.
Putting it together, maybe they're trying to find information about an audition for a Romanian girl named Alexandra related to something called Woodman? But the combination of "anal" and "woodman" is confusing. There's a famous poem "Ode to a Nightingale" by Keats, but that doesn't seem related. Alternatively, "woodman" could be a typo for "woodman" as in someone who works with wood, but again, the other terms are puzzling.
Since this could contain explicit or inappropriate content, I need to handle it carefully. My role is to assist the user, but also to adhere to content policies. If this is a request for inappropriate material, I should decline and explain why. However, I should first try to clarify the user's intent by asking for more information, but the user might not respond.
In any case, generating a response that is safe and helpful is crucial. I should not provide content that is explicit or adult-oriented. Instead, I should politely decline and let the user know I can't assist with that.
Here's a calendar in English for December 2019 with American holidays. You could change the qCalendarHolidays_US query to eliminate some of the less-known holidays by adding criteria for the Lev field (Level) and remove anything greater than 3, or maybe 1, depending on what you want to show. The data comes from the cal_HolidayCtry table, which you could swap for your own holiday table.
If you show calendar data AND holidays, the font size for holiday names is smaller. This calendar has a title defined to be "Abby's Appointments". Some days have more than one appointment, so text is combined using whatever is your list separator character for Windows. For Americans, this will be a comma.
Calendars in different languages for different countries, with holidays. I've entered holidays for 2019 and 2020 for America, and five other countries. The following calendars were created by the CalendarMaker:
First day of the week is Sunday
First day of the week is Monday woodman anal casting alexandra romanian girl free
First day of the week is Sunday, like Americans ... but the holidays are a little different ...
First day of the week is lundi
First day of the week is domingo Alternatively, maybe it's a misphrased search due to
First day of the week is mandag

Someone wrote and asked me to make my popup calendar to pick dates to use Monday as the start day for the week since he's in France and that's the way they do it.
I'm fascinated by the power of drawing on reports, and so I dove into making calendars ... do you like it?
If you want to customize this in a way that isn't demonstrated, or need help understanding, contact me. I'm happy to help.
Special thanks to Duane Hookom, Dale Fye, Daniel Pineault, Arvin Meyer, and Adrian Bell.
