English is far from precise. I suspect that both the number of days and the number of activities within any day can vary.

Unfortunately, it is likewise imprecise when describing the task. Which editing restriction is being used? How do you want the user to be able to modify the form?

Lyseo: The task you are trying to accomplish is fairly complex, IMO.

It may be that you will want to use a UserForm to ask your user up-front how many days and how many activities or to modify the form once you have started. These are not minor undertakings. Take a look at Create a Simple Userform to see if this is something you want to tackle. If it is, write back. I suspect that macropod can provide assistance if given enough information.

A simpler, although far less elegant, method is to prepare multiple templates to meet the multiple needs and have the user choose from among the templates.
