Default Date list excluding weekends

You could use a helper column and return the weekday for that date:

=WEEKDAY(a1,2)

Then drag this formula down the column.

Apply Data|filter|autofilter to this helper column
and show the values 5 (6 and 7 will be the weekends)

Then delete the visible rows

And remove the filter.

================
But maybe even better is to create the list without the weekends.

Put the start date in A1 (say)
Rightclick on the autofill button (the bottom right corner of the selection
indicator.
And drag down

But choose "Fill Weekdays"

There are lots of options you can get when you rightclick and drag on that
autofill button.

If I have a column of dates (365 days) from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, is there a way
to delete all weekends without the long, manual way of doing it? Connie
