Thanks, Frank. I'd found WEEKDAY, but I had no clue on how to set it up in the Conditional Formatting Box.

Hi
try the following:
- select cells A2:A165
- goto the conditional format dialog

I have consecutive dates arranged in A2:A165.
What I would like to do is Conditionally Format only weekend dates to

shade yellow. Can this be done? I suspect there is an 'Is Formula'
solution out there, but I haven't been able to do it yet. Any help
would be appreciated.
