You need not have to creat any search box, as if excel has the feature of find and replace dialog box. it is sufficient enough to search any kind of data including the date. 1 good thing about the find and replace is , no matter whatever the format of date is entered but you have to type the date in find dialog box in dd-mm-yyyy format. for coloring of bank holidays you have to use conditional formatting. to activate conditional formatting press alt+h,l. select = from the submenu, and enter the name of the holiday and select the color and press ok. repeat these steps for all holidays in a year. so whenever the cell shows the name of that holiday the color of that cell will change to the color you specifide.

Thank you Zujar. It's working fine. Now I want to know how to create a search box to find the details of a particular date. How to change the color of bank holidays to red automatically.

If you change the display format then you should change the formula too.
Check the below formula that produces correct result for "dd mm yyyy" format
mentioned in your email:

=IF(TEXT(A1, "dd mm yyyy") = "31 12 2012", "year end", "")

Note that this formula would work well for the year 2012 and no others.

Hello zujar,
Thank you. It's working fine. I tried to do it in 'dd mm yyyy' format but I
didn't get the appropriate result. I don't know why. If the date is in in
'dd mm yyyy' format then how to get the result. for ex. 1-1-2013 I enter
'value' instead of 'text' in formula but in vain.

Mukeshji,

The following formula in cell C1 should work for you:

=IF(TEXT(A1, "mmmm yyyy") = "December 2012", "year end", "")

Note the use of the format string with 4 m characters for full month
name and y character 4 full year. You can use the same string to
specify the Custom Format instead of the one with 9 m. The fourth m
tells Excel to display full month names.

Sameer,
The issue is not the date entered in A1 but the way Excel treats date
strings.

Dear Friend,

Try changing the formula in cell C1 to 31/03/2012 instead of December
2012.

Dear Friends,
In my excel sheet I have created a a table. Cell 'a1' has a formula
'=today()' and cell 'c1' has a formula '=IF(A1="December 2012","year
end","")' but I am not getting the desire result in cell 'c1'. Please
check it and give me the solution at the earliest. Thank you.
Format of cell 'a1' is 'custom' 'mmmmmmmmm yyyy' date format.
