One way:
Sub TestDates()
Dim NewShtName As String
NewShtName = Format(CDate(ActiveSheet.Name) + 7, "mmm dd")
Worksheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = NewShtName
End Sub

I have a weekly status spreadsheet. Each week, I create a new sheet
with Monday's date on it. Then put in the necessary fields and
formatting. I'm writing a macro to do this (talk about lazy!). If I
have a sheet named "Mar 17", how can I use that to create a sheet
named "Mar 24". I already copied the sheet name into a cell, and XL
recognized it as a date, so I could just copy the name, paste it to a
cell, add 7, then use that as the name for the new sheet. But is there
a more direct way of doing this?
Thanks in advance.
