Hi KAZ393:

Welcome to the Board!

Try ... =TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY())+2
for DATA|Validation for cell of interest.

Hi, Yogi I think the formula should be =A1=TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY())-5 to get the Monday in the previous week, where A1 is the cell you want to validate. Without the =A1 bit the validation does not work.

Hi inarbeth:

You are right -- I had mistakenly read 'Previous Monday' instead of 'Monday of Previous week'. As far as applying the validation to a particular cell is concerned I had left it upto the OP to make the association -- Thanks!
