Left out the critical piece of information!

Try this...
=DATE(A1,1,22)-WEEKDAY(DATE(A1,1,6))

A1 holds the year number of interest. For example, 2011.

=DATE(A1,1,22)-WEEKDAY(DATE(A1,1,6))

The general formula is:

=DATE(year,month,1+N*7)-WEEKDAY(DATE(year,month,8-day_of_week))

Whe

N = the nth weekday (3 for the 3rd Monday)

day_of_week = a number from 1 to 7. 1 = Sunday thru 7 = Saturday
