Default consecutive dates

With
A1: (a starting date)

Try this:

If you have the Analysis ToolPak installed
A2: =WORKDAY(A1,1)

or...
if you don't
A2: =A1+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A1,2),1,1,1,1,3,2,1)

Either way, copy B2 down as far as you need.

Does that help?
Post back if you have more questions.

Default consecutive dates

Hi,

You can drag dates to achieve that. With a date in A1 put this in b1 and
drag whenever required.

=WORKDAY(A1,1)
