Today()-1
 

Hello I have a cell formatted as =TODAY()-1 which is fine. The problem is
on Monday I want Friday's date, and of course, I get Sunday's date. How can I
correct this? thanks

Today()-1
 

=IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=2,TODAY()-3,TODAY()-1)

What does this mean in English: IF today is Monday, then TODAY minus 3, ELSE
TODAY minus 1?

Get the previous WORKING day.

If today is a Monday, subtract 3 days from it so as to avoid Saturday and
Sunday, otherwise just subtract 1 day.

Gary Thank you
and Dave F
an extra thanks for the "English" explanation. Since the only way to learn
is to understand what is being said.
