Return date of the next friday

[alainfranco]

Hello,

Does anyone know if it is possible to return the date of a specific day (in my case, Fridays) based on a provided date?

For instance, if my cell contains the value 2018-04-17 (today's date), I would need it to return the date (2018-04-20) of the next Friday.

Any ideas?

Hi,

try this:

Book1
	A	B
1	4-3-2018	9-3-2018
Sheet1

Cell Formulas
Range	Formula
B1	=7-WEEKDAY(A1,16)+A1

Something like

=A2+7-WEEKDAY(A2+7-MATCH(B2,{"sun";"mon";"tue";"wed";"thu";"fri";"sat"},0))

or simply

=A2+7-WEEKDAY(A2+7-6)

where A2 is today's date and 6 = Fri(day.
