Calandar Name Search

[VinceF]

Thanks in advance for assistance....long explanation...sorry

I'm fairly sure it's possible but would appreciate some advice on how to get this project off on the right foot.
Office 2010, novice user. I'm not requesting that you do it for me as I do enjoy working and trying to figure out Excel but would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

Wife's new position as Practice Administrator for Doctor's office entails scheduling and tracking vacation/personal days. I envision tabs for each month of year with a main tab with employees names listed. Once an employee has taken or scheduled a day off I'd put their name on that given day/month. From main tab I'd like to be able to input employees name and have it search each month and report the specific day(s) that the employee had a vacation or personal day.

On the main tab I will have it laid out to where I have a cell to input the employee I want to search or even a drop down box with the employees names (I know how to do this). I do need help on having it search all the tabs/months and reporting the specific month/day. Macro, look up...???? No clue at this point.

Thanks again...
VinceF
