Hi Jeff

Dim is important, it declares the variables to be used. See any book on
programming or do a Google search on the topic "declare variables", it's
really essential programming and too big a topic to be reasonably described
here. This one seem like a good start

vbMonday, on the other hand, is a part of the Weekday function in Vb,
defining which weekday is number 1. Not important at all in the big picture.

HTH. Best wishes Harald

Hi Harald,
Thank You, this worked.
May I ask?, What is "Dim" and "vbMonday" or how do they work?
I am pretty new to excel but finding myself addicted to it. I am reading
up
as much as I can but some of this stuff is pretty easy and some of it goes
way over my head.
Thanks again, I realy appreciate your help.

Jeff

This code gets me the 1st day of the current workweek. I need to edit
it
to
get the 1st day of the previous workweek.

Sub Auto_Open()
' Enter the prior Monday
Set StartDay = Sheets("SamB").Range("StartDay")
StartDay.Value = Date
Do Until Weekday(StartDay) = 2
StartDay.Value = StartDay.Value - 1
Loop
End Sub

I would appreciate your help.
Thanks,

Jeff
