**cross post from microsoft.public.excel**..no answer as of yet

Excel 2003
WindowsXP

I am creating a spreadsheet and inserting many dates. I want to insert the
date and have the day of the week of that particular date appear. Otherwise
I would have to look up years worth of dates.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you.

Thanks guys..another user said to use Format, Cell, Number, Date and click
on the second option that includes the day with the date.

12/05/06 =WEEKDAY(A2,1) =VLOOKUP(B2,$A$11:$B$17,2,FALSE)

13/10/05 =WEEKDAY(A4,1) =VLOOKUP(B4,$A$11:$B$17,2,FALSE)

12/05/04 =WEEKDAY(A6,1) =VLOOKUP(B6,$A$11:$B$17,2,FALSE)




2 Monday
3 Tuesday
4 Wednesday
5 Thursday
6 Friday
7 Saturday
1 Sunday



First read the Weekday Fuction to understand, If you start your week on
a Sunday, the ref to enter will be 1, meaning 1 will be first day of the
week or Sunday. Then you just do a vlookup as list above

Cheers
