Need formular to use with dates
Hi, I was trying to use the Formula SUMIF.
What I need is to have two colums, one with Dates and the other one with results. I need a formula to recognize if the date of the week is a Friday, the Result column should read original date + 4 days added to the original date. Example. If Date colum reads Friday, July 24, 2009 the Result column should read 07/29/09 or Wednesday,July 29,2009 Any other day of the week I just need to add 2 days. |

Hi,
Assuming your dates are in A1 down put this in b1 and drag down =IF(WEEKDAY(A1)=6,A1+5,A1+2) Mike "NICKJAX" wrote: Hi, I was trying to use the Formula SUMIF.

While it sounds like it, that's not the context for SUMIF (see XL help file
for further info). For your scenario, Assuming original date is in A2: =A2+IF(WEEKDAY(A2)=6,4,2) Format cell to desired date format. -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "NICKJAX" wrote: Hi, I was trying to use the Formula SUMIF.

Assuming cell A1 contains a date, the following formula will add 4 days
if the date is a friday, and 2 days for all other days of the week: =IF(WEEKDAY(A1)=6,A1+4,A1+2) Jay -- NICKJAX wrote: Hi, I was trying to use the Formula SUMIF.

Hi,
You shouldn't get that if you spelt the formula correctly. Don't retype it copy and paste it and see if that works.

Copied directly from Mike's post, no error. Post your version of the formula.
