Function to write Weekday - Monday, Tuesday etc
 

What is the function to write Weekday only (MOnday, Tuesday etc) from the
given date. For example, when I write date as 26 September 2005, the function
should return the value of Monday.

Hi

You don't need a function.
Format CellsNumberCustom and set it to ddd

If you did want to do it by function, then
=TEXT(A1,"ddd")

Apologies, 1 "d" too few.
format as "dddd" or TEXTA(A1,"dddd")
