Question about having the date autofill for schedule sheets
 
I am currently trying to have the date auto fill for 6 days of the week on a
spreadsheet with 5 sheets on it. Our work week is Mon - Sat and I was
wondering if there is a formula that I can use that when I entered the date
for Monday July 31st it would auto fill in the correct date for the rest of
the sheets.

Thank you ahead of time!

Let's assume your entered date of July 31 is in cell A1 of Sheet1. In cell
B1, you could enter:

=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1),DAY(A1)+1)

Copy this formula across to cell F1. You've now got your first 6 days
displayed across the top of Sheet1.

Now, in cell A1 of Sheet2 enter:

=DATE(YEAR('Sheet1'!A1),MONTH('Sheet1'!A1),DAY('Sh eet1'!A1)+7)

Copy this formula across to cell F1. You've not got your second week of 6
days displayed across the top of Sheet2.

Repeat this for your other sheets. You could also copy the formula down
rows instead of across columns if preferred.

The formula for sheet 2 is giving me an error and is asking me to update the
excel file and when I select it, it adds [WEEK1] to the forumla

Sorry I am using Week 1 for the sheet names not Sheet 1 which I did change in
the formulas

I only used Sheet1 and Sheet2 as example names. If the names of your sheets
are different, then use your names. So, if your first sheet is called WEEK1
then use this:

=DATE(YEAR('WEEK1'!A1),MONTH('WEEK1'!A1),DAY('WEEK 1'!A1)+7)
