I have the need to calculate 4 weekly periods with the periods starting on a
Thursday (historical reasoning) as follows:
Period 1 Start-29th May End-25th June
Period 2 Start-26th June End-23rd July

I have found out how to do this with Access but the same functions are not
available in Excel

Many thanks in advance

My Mistake

Periods run from a Friday not a Thursday

You say you want to calculate 4 week periods. I'm not sure what that
means, you just want a list?

If you put the start date of period 1 in B2, i.e. 29-May-2009 then C2
will calculate the end date with the formula

=B2+27

then in B3 you can use the formula

=B2+28

and then copy that formula across to C3 and down both columns as far as
you need. Format all cells in the required date format
