Nested IF function

[PWK]

Hello All

=IF(ISBLANK(D2),"",TEXT(D2+3,"ddd"),IF(D2="Sun","Mon",D2)))

I am using this function in a worksheet to insert day of week. When
the day "Sun" occurs I want "Mon" to show in the cell instead (I get a
too many argument error). I get very confused with nested functions.
Thanks for your help.

is D2 a proper date or is it text?

Don,
Thanks for your reply.
It is a date, in this case 11/13/2008

Hi,

Try this and format as DDD

=IF(ISNUMBER(D2),MAX(WEEKDAY(2),WEEKDAY(D2)),"")

Let me add to this. My formula is in cell L2 my formula should read
=IF(ISBLANK(D2),"",TEXT(D2+3,"ddd"),IF(L2="Sun","Mon",L2))) as I said
I am confused.

Try:

=IF(ISBLANK(D2),"",TEXT(D2+3+(WEEKDAY(D2+3)=1),"ddd"))

Please TOP post. A formula in cell L2 cannot change itself. You need to give
a better explanation.

=IF(ISBLANK(D2),"",TEXT(D2+3,"ddd"),IF(L2="Sun","Mon",L2))) as I said

Thanks, Don

You put me in the right direction. My successful formula was =IF
(ISNUMBER(D2),MAX(WEEKDAY(2),WEEKDAY(D2+3)),"") Every day is a
learning experience. Thanks again.

Try:

=IF(ISBLANK(D2),"",TEXT(D2+3+(WEEKDAY(D2+3)=1),"ddd"))
