Google Calendar with sequential numbering 11:08 - Apr 21 with 2458 views

Hi peeps I use the Calendar quite a lot these days and wondered if there is a way to insert a sequential number in a repeated task. For instance if a birthday on May 1st this year and number it as 1, how can you get it to increment each year it repeats?

Thanks in advance and stay safe.

Don't believe it is possible

Is what you're saying that you can't remember how old your children are?

Incredible to think that it is not possible. I would have thought it would be a fundamental option users would want. Hmmm.

No problem remembering the age of my children, but it would certainly be useful for my siblings and close friends I guess.

How about if you put their year of birth in the event and then work it out each year?

Yeah that is what I have done for birthdays.

But it is useful for other things to for instance:-
Knowing what week of the financial year is useful for self employed.
How long in weeks since a task or event happened.
Growing veg and hence know when they will be ready for harvest.

Lots of things really. At the moment I have been using spreadsheets, but a calendar is much more logical.
