Hi Chuck

You don't really need DAY() or WEEKDAY().
Just =A1 formatted as ddd would do.

Happy New Year

Nevermind, I see now that I should have used =WEEKDAY(A1) instead of
just DAY(A1)............

Hi All.............
Just was working out a problem and in A1 put 12/31/2005
and in B1 put =DAY(A1), formatted as Custom dddd, and the result
came out TUESDAY. Then when I copied both cells down, A2 became
1/1/2006 and B2 became Sunday, as they should be, etc etc on
down......... I dropped down to A8 and entered 12/25/2005 and in
B8 put =DAY(A8) and I got WEDNESDAY. By then copying down, these
followed that sequence to 12/3102005 being TUESDAY again and when
it switched to 1/1/2006 in A15, then B15 became Sunday as it
should be, and was correct from there on down........... Anybody
know what's up with that? Vaya con Dios,
