week update

[Savio]

is there any way to have a cell in excel update itself every week to
show the first day of the week?
say the week starts on a monday, the cell displays 23/02/09, retains
this value thoughout the week and displays 02/03/09 the following
monday
thanks

Add 7 to Bob's formula.

=TODAY()-(WEEKDAY(TODAY())-2)+7

 

[chris]

use following formula
=IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=2,TODAY(),IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=1,TODAY()-6,IF
(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=7,TODAY()-5,IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=6,TODAY()-4,IF
(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=5,TODAY()-3,IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=4,TODAY()-2,TODAY
()-3))))))

That can be simplified

=TODAY()+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(TODAY()),1,0,-1,-2,-3,-4,-5)
