Dates Formating
 
hi
Me again new question --- how do you auto format dates in Excel.
At the top of my table (see my previous question) I manually write the dates
for every Monday in the year but I would like to do this automatically any
ideas?
Also how can I change the dates every six months without having to start a
new table

=thatcell+7
