I am changing the 2008 calendar to be 2009 and I can't figure out how to make
a line split the box so I can have 2 dates in one box, example: March 24 and
March 31 are both on Tuesday. How do I get the box to 'split'??

Calendars are (almost always) created in tables. So forget for the moment
that you're dealing with a calendar, and think in terms of working with a
table.

Put the cursor in the cell and click Table > Split Cells. (In Word 2007, on
the Table Tools > Layout ribbon, click the Split Cells button.) In the
dialog that pops up, choose 1 column and 2 rows. Click OK. That will split
the selected cell into two cells, each half as high as the original cell.

It isn't possible to split a cell in Word diagonally in half. It is possible
to use the Borders dialog to make a diagonal border line appear through the
middle of the cell, but it's still only one cell; you would have to use line
spacing and a tab to get the second date into the "other half" of the cell.
