Default Setting a Timesheet with Dates

Not as complicated as that. Put your date in F4 and in G4 put

=F4+1

Drag this right for as many days as you want and then select the cells and
format them as date.

I'm not that good with Excel, so there could be something very visible I'm
missing.

I have a date for the beginning of the week "6/18/2007" in F4.

I then have five cells that stand for the days of the week. I want to be
able to enter Monday's date (18) and put a equation in the five cells that
will calculate their dates automatically.

I think I have to transfer 6/18/2007 into Excel numbers, which is 39251. And
then put it back into regular time with the DAY function.

=DAY((DATEVALUE(F4))+Y)
Y being adjustment for the date (ex. +2 for Wendsday.

But I get an error. Any help would be welcome.
