Very nice!! I'm still trying to work out the math behind why your formula
works; but, being a programmer (we tend to favor zero-based series), I would
have said...

Where DOW = Sun - 0 thru Sat -6

And, while I recognize you were giving a general solution, I would note that
since the OP's question was for Sundays, your formula simplifies to this for
that condition...

=4+(DAY(A1-DAY(A1)+35)<WEEKDAY(A1-DAY(A1)))

Try this:

=4+(DAY(A1-DAY(A1)+35)<WEEKDAY(A1-DAY(A1)-DOW))

Where DOW = Mon - 1 thru Sun - 7

You are quite correct... it was left over from my testing, when I was
trying to get the individual sections to work correctly. Thanks for
noticing that.

Although the original formula works correctly (the double unary, the
minus-minus signs, does nothing more than multiply by one), here is the
corrected formula for the archives...

=4+SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1 )-ROW($1:$3))=1)*(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-ROW($1:$3))28))

Rick,

=4+SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-ROW($1:$3))=1)*(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-ROW($1:$3))28))

Being as you are multiplying in the SUMPRODUCT() surely you don't need
the double unary?

Here is a formula that, unlike joeu2004's offering, does not require
the Analysis ToolPak and is also not volatile...

=4+SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-ROW($1:$3))=1)*(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-ROW($1:$3))28))

What about if you wnat to know the no. of Sundays, but just from a
single
cell, say

A1=3/1/2007

Try this:

With Dates in A1:A10

This formula counts the number of Saturdays in that range:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(A1:A10)=7))

To count other days:
1=Sunday, 2=Monday,....7=Saturday

Does that help?
Post back if you have more questions.
