Default Rounding Dates

For a related approach, recall that a date is stored as the number of
days since the beginning of 1900. You can verify that Saturday dates
are divisible by 7. Thus
Int((dt + 1) / 7) * 7 - 1
is the nearest Friday date that is <= dt.

One caveat: Both this and the other answers will be wrong for dates
before March 1900, because Excel dates include the nonexistent date of
Feb 29, 1900 for compatibility with Lotus.
