Can I get a day(eg.Monday) referenced from a date cell?(2/May/05)
I would like to reference a cell that has a date in it, (e.g. 02/May/2005
(which is a Monday)) and then write into my new cell the word "Monday". I can only see currently how I can write in a number (e.g. 2 for Monday) at present. I guess it is possible to use a lookup table but if anybody knows how to do it directly I would be most grateful. I'm using MS Office Pro. 2000 Excel. Thanks Murray |

Either a link like =A1 and custom format dddd or =TEXT(A1,"dddd")
where A would hold the date -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "murdot" wrote in message ...
