how do i automatically change the day and date

[Caveman]

If A1 is blank, A2 is january, B1:AF1 are days of the month, B2:AF2 are
dates(1st-2nd etc) how do i get them to change for the whole month by
just changing the first day or date of the month.

Not sure what you mean.

B1 to AF1 loops monday to sunday over 31 columns (days in a month) ?
B2 to AF2 is 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc.

Which cell do you want to change (B1 or B2) so that the rest ar
automated

if the 1st jan is on a sat (2005) then when 2006 comes round then th
1st jan should show it is on a sunday so if i change B1 (sat) to Su
then the rest of the month will automatically change without have t
replicate along the ro

Better yet, just change a cell to show the first of the month (and year
e.g. cell A1 = 01-Jan 05

In B1, enter: =WEEKDAY(A1) and Custom format this cell as 'dddd' (i
will show Saturday)

In C1, enter: =B1+1 it will show Sunday. Copy this to the right a
far as needed... (tip: make sure all cells are wide enough to displa
"Wednesday" else #### will be displayed instead)

Now, simply change A1 to 01-Jan 06 and B1 becomes Sunday and the res
follow suit.

Does that work for you
