Default day of the week entry automatically

I have placed the date in one cell, but I need to enter the day of the week
automatically in another cell. Got a formula?

If the date is in A1 the formula in another cell is =A1 and format that cell
as Custom ddd or dddd

Sure. If the date is in A1, just put =A1 in the other cell. Then format the
cell to show the day instead of the date. The formula doesn't "show" the
day, the formatting of the cell does. :)

Or, as a formula:

=TEXT(A1,"dddd")
