I am not really sure what makes a calendar "Academic", but the following
macro will ask you for what year you want to create a calendar and then it
will create one for that year.
' Macro created 11/14/98 by Doug Robbins to make calendar
' Modified 11/29/98 to add shading to weekends and "non-date" cells. '
Dim Message, Title, Default, Calyear, Thisyear, nyday
Thisyear = Year(Date)
Message = "Enter the year for which you want to create a calendar" '
Set prompt.
Title = "Calendar Maker" ' Set title.
Default = Thisyear ' Set default.
Calyear = InputBox(Message, Title, Default)
