Days and Dates without Weekends

My wife is trying to make an Excel spreadsheet where column A is the date and column B is the weekday. Starting in September and ending in June is the range. Column B is easy, just fill Monday thru Friday all the way down. Column A, we are trying to find a quick way to go, for example, 9/3/12 to 9/7/12, then skip to Monday's date - 9/10. Is there a formula that enters the correct workday and lines up with the correct corresponding day? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
 
Welcome to chandoo.org gdenison. thanks for your question.


In column B, in first cell (lets say B1) manually enter the start date.

In second cell, write=workday(B1,1) and then drag it down until you see end date.


If you do not want formulas, just type starting date and next date in 2 cells and then drag it down and use "Fill weekdays only option". For more on this refer to - http://chandoo.org/wp/2008/06/30/skip-weekends-while-autofill-dates-in-excel-howto/
 
In the cell next to Chandoo's B1 say C1 put =B1

Custom Number Format using dddd

Copy the cell down
