Well....

enter 3/6/2005 in A1

B3 enter formula =DAY($A$1)
C3 thru P3 gets =DAY(IF(B3="","",B3+7))

you will get

6
13
20
27
3
10
17
24
31 <this should be May 7 but it is April 31
7
14

but wait maybe it is not interpreting B3 as 4/6/2005????

Using XL2k, when I put 3/6/2005 in A1 and =A1+7 in B1 and drag B1 out to I1,
I get:

B1= 3/13/2005
C1= 3/20/2005
D1= 3/27/2005
E1= 4/3/2005
F1= 4/10/2005
G1 = 4/17/2005
H1= 4/24/2005
I1= 5/1/2005

"No 4/31/2005 in sight"
Is this not what you asked for?
"WHERE" are you getting the 4/31/2005?, and by what means?

Yes I agree, but, it will return a date of April 31, 2005 even though this
date is not true. I am looking for a surefire solution. By the way

Last day of the this month:
=DATE(YEAR("04/01/2005"),MONTH("04/01/2005")+1,1)-1

returns 4/30/2005

Thanks for the input

If you put a date in A1, then in B1 put

=A1+7, and copy it over to as many columns to the right as you
wish.......each will increment 7 days.

How can I set a date in subsequent columns that are 7 days apart? I
have
tried
=DAY(IF(B3="","",B3+7)) but if given a date March 6, 2005 it will
show 31
days in April. Any suggestions?
