I need to set up a spreadsheet that would look something like the
following:

Subject # Day 1 Day 2 Day 8 Day 15
Day 22
May 17,2005

I want to put a function in each of the remaining columns that when I
enter
the date in Day1 for each subject, excel will calculate the date for me.
For
example if I enter May 17th as Day 1, excel will complete the other dates
by
adding 1 day to the date in Day 1 to give me May 18th, add 7 days to Day 1
to
give me May 24 in the cell for Day 8 etc. I am using Excel 2003.

Thanks very much for your help.

Best regards,

Dee
