Does B1 actually contain the text "Sat", or is it a date formatted as ddd?
If the latter, change Shane's formula from
=IF(OR(B1="Sat",B1="Sun"),0,7.5)
to
=IF(OR(TEXT(B1,"ddd")="Sat",TEXT(B1,"ddd")="Sun"), 0,7.5)

Unfortunately, this function comes back with a 7.5 or FALSE for both Sat
and
Sun.

Hi,

=IF(OR(B1="Sat",B1="Sun"),0,7.5)

This assumes that the first day is in cell B1.

I have set up an worksheet for employees that automatically populates
two
rows, the day (eg. Wed) the date (e.g. 15). The first day and date are
calculated from a mm/dd/yy entered by the employee. Successive day and
dates
are completed by simply adding 1 to the previous cell formula.
What formula do I use to automatically populate a third row with a
sheduled value of "7.5" for Monday - Friday and "0.0" for Saturday and
Sunday"?

e.g. DAY: Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue etc.
DATE: 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 etc.
SCHE: 7.5 7.5 7.5 0.0 0.0 7.5 7.5 etc.

Thanks
