Hi Daniel

Try this:

=LOOKUP(WEEKDAY(variables!$B$33),{1,2,3,4,5,6,7},{ "Dimanche","Lundi","Mardi","Mercredi","Jeudi","Ven dredi","Samedi"})&"
le "&DAY(variables!$B$33)&"
"&LOOKUP(MONTH(variables!$B$33),{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 ,10,11,12},{"Janvier","Février","Mars","Avril","M ai","Juin","Juillet","Août","Septembre","Octobre" ,"Novembre","Décembre"})&", "&YEAR(variables!$B$33)

No, you would have to maintain language specific lists and look it up.

Hello,

I have the need to have 2 cells side-by-side (one in English and the other
in French). In the English one, I have =Text('variables'!$B$33,"dddd mmm
dd,
yyyy") which results in the value 'Saturday, September 01, 2007' being
returned.

How can I do the same but resulting in the French counterpart being
returned
such as 'Samedi le 1 septembre, 2007'? Is there a way to set the language
of
a cell?

Thank you for your guidance,

Daniel P
