To run this code, your workbook must have a worksheet named “Cover” that contains the following:

A spin control that contains a list of years name “SpinControl1”
An option button for the “with weekends” option named “OptionButton1”
An option button for the “without weekends” option named “OptionButton2”
An option button for the “with holidays” option named “OptionButton3”
An option button for the “without holidays” option named “OptionButton4”

Your workbook must also contain a worksheet named “Employee” that lists the names of the employees you want on your calendar in column A starting in cell A3, and a worksheet named “Holidays” that lists the dates of the holidays in column A starting in cell A2 and the name of the holidays in column B starting in cell B2.
