Using Excel 2003, I have a spreadsheet with Column B listing workdays (Mon;Tue;Wed;Thur;Fri;Sat) five times and ending with an additional Mon.
I need help a formula that, after entering the 1<SUP>st</SUP> day of the month (ie 3/1), the remaining dates calculate in column C with the corresponding days and after the last date of the month leave the rest of the dates blank. Is that possible or would the manual entry of the 1<SUP>st</SUP> day erase the formula and prevent future use of the spreadsheet?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I would like to be able to reuse the spreadsheet and just change the starting date each month.<o:p></o:p>
Thanks,<o:p></o:p>

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Try this =IF(WEEKDAY(B1,1)< 7,B1+1,B1+2)
Put your first date in B1, this formula in B2 and copy down

B1=IF(C1="","",TEXT(C1,"dddd"))
C2=C1+1+(WEEKDAY(C1+1)=1)
C24=IF(C23="","",IF(MONTH($C$1)<>MONTH(C23+1+(WEEKDAY(C23+1)=1)),"",C23+1+(WEEKDAY(C23+1)=1)))


Copy the B1 formula down to B30
Copy the C2 formula down to C23
Copy the C24 formula down to C30

Enter the start date in C1 and the formulas should calculate the rest.
