Can anyone tell me how to create a new number format so that the selected
dates (Dec 07) will appear only as the full names of the days of the week
(Sunday, Monday etc.)?
Thanks,
C J

It's called custom formatting. Excel help has several examples. Select the
cells with the dates and apply the custom format dddd
