Excel Updateing Information
 
I have a table with field headings of days of the week and dates
In each column I enter numbers or text of what is happening on that day
I can get the headings to change automatically using =Today() in the first
cell but then I have to manually Copy and Paste the rest of the data
Is there a way I can get this to happen as the date changes

Thanks for any help

Not sure what data is being copied and pasted. If you want day of the week to
change, you can also use =today() and format the cell as day.

my atble is set out
mon/tue/wed/thu/fri/sat/sun
date
then info for each day

When the date changes it becomes
tue/wed/thur/fri/sat/sun/mon
the dates move accordingly
the information for each day however has to be moved manually

Hi John

If you made A1 hold the date then enter in B1
=$A$1+COLUMN()-2
Copy this across through C1:H1 and format cells Custom ddd
This will provide the days of the week, relative to the date entered in A1

Then each time you want to move things across, Insert a new column at B, and
copy C1 to B1
Record a macro as you do this, then run it whenever you need.

Thankyou for that but I still ahve the same problem - I am not explaining
properly - I shall try better
My table looks

Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
1/8 2/8 3/8 4/8 5/8

Boat Heli Heli
1 2 1

I can get the Day and Date to move put this what happens

Tue Wed Thu Fri sat
2/8 3/8 4/8 8/8 6/8
Boat Heli Heli
1 2 1

The information should show No Boat and the Heli's on 2 & 4/8

I hope that is clearer
