Unfortunately Alan, neither is perfect in an international setting. Yours
has the days hard-coded (even assuming the OP can translate the functions),
and mine has the day identifier hard-coded. It is "dddd" in English, In
Dutch it would be "tttt" I presume, so it is hard-coded just the same.

You're right of course, but I assumed (rightly or wrongly) that the
English
version was being used and the requirement was to display the days in
Dutch.
On the Dutch version, the TEXT function would be be the simplest and
easiest,

There is an easier one, see my response.

Thank you so much Alan,

Didn't know there was such an easy array function in Excel!

Great to know!

Thanks!

You're formula will work if you remove the quotes from the "1", "2"
etc,



=IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)=1,"Zondag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)=2,"M aandag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)=3

,"Dinsdag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)=4,"Woensdag",IF(WEEKDA Y(C8,1)=5,"Donderdag",IF(W
EEKDAY(C8,1)=6,"Vrijdag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)=7,"Zater dag","")))))))

Another way avoiding all those 'IF's,



=CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(C8,1),"Zondag","Maandag","Dinsdag" ,"Woensdag","Donderdag","V
rijdag","Zatwerdag")

Hi everyone,

I am working on a worksheet, and I have a little problem, it is
not
that
important, but it is part of the worksheet. I am using the function
WEEKDAY(C8,1). If I put this date: 8/1/2006 in cell C8, it returns
"3",
which
is correct so far. However, when I integrate the function WEEKDAY()
in
the
function IF() (see below):



=IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)="1","Zondag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)="2 ","Maandag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,

1)="3","Dinsdag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)="4","Woensdag",I F(WEEKDAY(C8,1)="5","Donde

rdag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8,1)="6","Vrijdag",IF(WEEKDAY(C8 ,1)="6","Zaterdag","")))))
))

Language=Dutch for the days, sorry about that:)

So the problem is, when I use this formula, it returns the last
VALUE_IF_FALSE, which is "", that gives me an empty cell. It is
only
supposed
to give an empty cell if all the previous statements are False, and
that
is
not supposed to be the case here.
If I put 8/1/2006 in cell C8, I want to see "Dinsdag". Sorry for my
incoherent story, hope you understand my problem!
