Add one more "th" to your CHOOSE function to handle the 5th such and such a
day in the month; for example September 30, 2010 will be the 5th Thursday in
the month.

=INT((DAY(G10)-1)/7)+1& CHOOSE(INT((DAY(G10)-1)/7)+1,
"st","nd","rd","th","th")&TEXT(G10,"dddd")&" of "& TEXT(G10,"mmmm")

But I fear that's too obvious and I'm missing something!

Hi,

I need to write something which determines whether or not the day is the
first, second, third or fourth day. For example if it is Thursday,
determine
whether or now its the first, second, third or fourth Thursday of the
month.

Thanks in advance,
geebee
