Regardless of Excel version: =A2+7 and format as date
If you meant 7 workdays: =WORKDAYS(A1,7)

Thanks to you both, I guess that was too obvious. One other question: Is
there a way to have a cell equal to the day of the week in format MON, TUE,
WED, etc based on the date in another cell. I know WEEKDAY(A1) will give it
in format 1,2,4 but I would like MON, TUE, WED format, thanks

Actually, what I need is to have cell D2 to be the day of the week of the
date in A2. So, if A2 contains 16-Nov, D2 would contain SUN, if A2 contained
17-Nov, D2 would be MON, etc

Sorry for the confusion

I was just giving an example of the layout, in your specific case, you would...
D2: =TEXT(A2,"ddd")

So what cell reference might you think of using in the formula in place of
TODAY() ?

If the cell holds a date, why not use a custom format of 'ddd' or 'dddd' to
get Mon or Monday

That seems to work also. Since I want to have both a column with the date and
a column with the day of week, I can just make a copy of the date column and
change the format to 'ddd'. Thanks again
