Timesheet Validation
 

I'm new too this so be patient!
I have devised a weekly timesheet which calculate hours and minutes worked
per day, and (later) calculates both overtime and time off (short days). Our
week begins on a Monday (even on Bank Holidays) and the only unlocked 'date'
cell is the first one (first Monday of the week). Can I use a formula in
validation to 'force' the input date to return the nearest Monday to that
input date. (I have tried to make it easy by using the format 'dddd
dd/mm/yy' but I still get sheet which start on a Sunday or Tuesday !)

Timesheet Validation
 

I am assuming that you mean Data Validation. Assuming it is in A2, use this
formula in Custom type

=A2=A2-WEEKDAY(A2)+2

I did indeed mean Data Validation ! Many thanks Bob, that works just fine.
My original question /idea was to make the formula find the nearest Monday
to the date the user entered, but I'm more than happy with your suggestion
now that I've tried it.
Cheers.
