Default getting future dates from an existing date

With your dates in A1



Next Thursday


=A1+7-WEEKDAY(A1+2)



First Friday of next month is


=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,0)+8-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,0)+2)



First Monday next even months


=DATE(YEAR(A1),CEILING(MONTH(A1)+1,2),0)+4-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),CEILING(MONTH(A1)+1,2),0)+2)

Hi everyone,
I have an excel sheet filled with dates of this year and few future
years, i am intending to use it as a worksheet for knowing some prcise
dates and put precise job for these days, this part is obvious i ll
use the conditional formatting and LOOKUP functions for the jobs. the
hard part for me is in finding 3 dates in 3 columns

col 1 -- Next Thursday (if date is a Thursday then the date itself)
col 2 -- The first Friday of the next month
col 3 -- The first Monday of the next even month (Feb, Apr, Jun, Aug,
Oct, Dec)

Actually i will be using these specific days for specific jobs(col 1)
or payments (col 2 & 3)
my dates are in col 0 and they are formatted as "dd.mm.yy"

I know i am asking for too much, and i appreciate any help in these
tasks.
