Formula to return Friday's date: m/d/yyyy
I'm trying to write a formula to return this Friday's date (Format m/d/yyyy)
If it's a Saturday, I want next weeks Friday to be displayed
The following works, but takes 7 cells (each formula is in a different cell)
I would like to combine the following into one formula
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=1,TODAY()+5,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=2,TODAY()+4,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=3,TODAY()+3,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=4,TODAY()+2,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=5,TODAY()+1,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=6,TODAY()+0,""
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=7,TODAY()+6,""
Value returned: 4/30/200
If I join each line together with an "&" the date is retuned in decimal value, not m/d/yyyy
The "number format" of the cell is Category: Date | Type: m/dd/yy
(The following is all on one line in my sheet, I broke it up here to make it easier to see
=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=1,TODAY()+5,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=2,TODAY()+4,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=3,TODAY()+3,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=4,TODAY()+2,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=5,TODAY()+1,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=6,TODAY()+0,"")
IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=7,TODAY()+6,""
Value returned: 3810
Maybe there is a better way to write this
Any ideas
Thanks
