It doesn't work becuase "Monday" is text not a date serial number

If you put 22/08/2006 in A1 then it will work

Alternativly you could use =IF(LEFT(A1,1)="S","Weekend","Week")

Hi everyone,

I am facing the following situation:

A1= Monday;
A2=if(weekday(A1,2)<6,"Week","Weekend")

in A2, we should have: "Week", if the content of A1= Monday,
Tuesday,...Friday.
Or "Weekend", if the content of A1: Saturday or Sunday.

It doesn't work ! Why ?

Please help me !
Thanks very much
Tom
