I am trying to do something with dates on exel. The problem is that we work a
4 X 10 schedule. I want to be able to type in a start date and have the rest
of the dates automaticly fill in. I guess there is two things I am trying to
learn.

1. How do I make it so dates automaticly fill in?
2. How do I make it fill in using a 4 X 10 schedule?

Please Help!

Thank you,

You can't really autmate this without first creating the formulas, assume A2
would the cell with the start date, then you can refer to this cell in the
other cells like

=IF(A2="","",A2+1) (will add one day to the date in A2 unless A2 is empty
and so on)

I am afraid you need to to do some manual work first and then it will look
like it is
automated later.

OK. I am more than happy to have a formula in the cells to make this work.
The formula you gave me was great, except I need it to be something that will
only input Monday thru Thursday (our 4 X 10 schedule). Is this possible with
excel?

Hi
you may provide some more information. e.g. an example how the expected
result should look like :-)
