Default Formula Help :-(

Hi

I am quite new to excel's more advanced formulas.
What I currently have on my table is:

A cell that contains the formula =TODAY()
This cell is working and returns todays day eg Wednesday used cell
properties to change its form no problem there

I also have within the sheet a table that contains days on which an item is
to be ordered also in the form of text eg Wednesday.

My final colum is a To be ordered whihc i wanted it to compare the value
from the =TODAY() formula and compare it with the day in the order day cell
and return true if they match or false if they don't

I tried this formula but it doesn't work can anyone help me thanks

=EXACT(J7,$B$1)
J7 = the days to be ordered in text form
B1 = Formula containing =TODAY()

Hope that makes sence

thanks Katy
