So I am not sure if what I am trying to do is possible. But here goes. I have 2 teams that every other week they work Sun, Mon, Tues. of one week and the next every other week they work Sun, Mon, Tues. I have a calendar created and what I am trying to do is if in column "C" it says Team 1 or 3 it will highlight the days they do not work that week. Is what I am looking to do even possible?

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
From your picture, how do we know which team is in which week of their schedule?
Is this Sun, Mon, Tues the only days they work in 2 weeks?
Is it reasonable to think this picture is just the start of your sheet and that the calendar goes on for the entire year?
Can you manually highlight the first 3 weeks for Teams 1 & 2 and post back so we know what your expectations are?

Sorry about that. This doc is set up for the entire year + years. Team 1 & 2 work Sun, Mon, Tues, & every other Wed. Team 3 Works Every opposite Wed, Thurs, Fri, & Sat. We started this rotation on 3/3/24 the blackout days are the days the teams are off and its just a continuing rotation like this. I put what March and April's breakdown would look like. Team 1 is day's & team 2 is nights, Then team 3 is days. I hope this can help with any confusion from the initial post.

OK, one month per sheet.

Are the dates in rows 7 and/or 8 real dates?
If you select cell G7 or G8 on the March sheet,
go to the vba Immediate Window,
and type in ?activecell.value2
and hit enter, does it give 45354 ?

I am trying to upload a Mini Sheet but waiting to get approval for Add-In from my administrators. But I will try to explain oh everything is currently working. The Months are not set up as individual sheets its only one sheet. The months are in a Data Validation from another tab as well as the years. The date is E8's formula is =DATEVALUE("1"&J4&V4). The date is F8 is =IF(E8="","",IF(EOMONTH($E$8,0)>=E8+1,E8+1,"")) and this continues all the way across just the green color font changes to the prior column.

This is using G8 cell

OK, thanks. That value2 for E8 was my biggest concern.
Will see what I can come up with.

Sorry OX, been working on this and afraid I have to admit defeat.
Highlighting that would over lap 2 months has me stumped.

Hopefully another member will happen by and take on this challenge.

Might have been over thinking things...
Try this
VBA Code:
Sub OX_2005()
    
    Dim baseDate As Long
    Dim rng As Range, cel As Range
    Dim lc As Long, x As Long, teamRW As Long
    
' establish a starting point
baseDate = DateSerial(2024, 3, 6)

With ActiveSheet
    lc = .Cells(8, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
    Set rng = .Range(.Cells(8, 5), .Cells(8, lc))
    teamRW = .Columns(3).Cells.Find(What:="Team 1", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole).Row
    
    For Each cel In rng
        x = (cel.Value2 - baseDate) Mod 14
        Select Case x
        Case 0 To 3
            .Cells(teamRW, cel.Column).Resize(2).Interior.ColorIndex = 45
        Case 4 To 7
            .Cells(teamRW, cel.Column).Offset(2).Interior.ColorIndex = 45
        Case 8 To 10
            .Cells(teamRW, cel.Column).Resize(2).Interior.ColorIndex = 45
        Case 11 To 13
            .Cells(teamRW, cel.Column).Offset(2).Interior.ColorIndex = 45
        End Select
    Next cel
End With

End Sub
Hope it works for you
here's a link to my test file

Is this code based on having 1 sheet for each month or 1 sheet for multiple months and years? I tried the code and it work if I pressed play on the VBA but when I changed to the next month it did not update correctly when I clicked play on the VBA, But also I am looking to see if this will automatically update when I change months.

OK, forget all that and try conditional formatting

for Teams 1 & 2
=OR(AND(MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)>=3, MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)<=6), AND(MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)>=11, MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)<=13))

for Team 3
=OR(AND(MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)>=0, MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)<=2), AND(MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)>=7, MOD(VALUE(E$8)-45354,14)<=10))
