CalendarMaker
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.
Calendar
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.
Since "Redux" is a popular naming convention for overhaul mods, it is important to distinguish this from the "Ultimate Mod" or "Improvement Mod." The Carbon Redux mod is widely considered one of the best "definitive edition" style mods for the game, focusing on stabilizing the notoriously buggy PC port and enhancing the visual fidelity without changing the core gameplay too drastically.
- Can be demanding on older hardware due to the added post-processing shaders.
- Not compatible with online features (if playing on unofficial servers, file mismatches will occur).
- Some users report visual bugs if they have Reshade or other overlays running.
Since this is a community-made mod, it is available for free. You should always download from reputable community hubs to ensure you are getting the latest, safest version. Recommended Sources
Download the Mod: Visit the official website or a reputable modding platform (e.g., NFS Carbon Redux Mod website, GameFAQs, or Reddit) to download the mod. Look for a download link or a torrent file.
Extract the Archive: Once downloaded, extract the archive file (usually .rar or .zip) to a folder on your computer.
Locate the Game Directory: Find the directory where Need for Speed: Carbon is installed. Typically, this is located in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed Carbon or C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed Carbon.
Merge the Mod Files: Copy the extracted mod files into the game's directory, overwriting any existing files when prompted.
Launch the Game: Start Need for Speed: Carbon, and the mod should be applied automatically.
Deep Customization: Players can access advanced tuning options like camber adjustments, dual LED underglow, and license plate customization.
Replace Files: When prompted, choose to "Replace the files in the destination".
New Customization: More body kits, rims, and vinyl options to enhance the "Autosculpt" feature. How to Install the Mod

Holiday Calendar
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.

Backstory
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.
Please
donate
to help with costs, thank you!
