Assuming that the given date is in the Cell A1 If you want to know the serial number for the given date for the year use =A1+1-DATE(TEXT(A1,"yyyy"),1,1) If you want to know the weekday name then simply use =TEXT(A1,"DDD") for 3 letter days e.g. Sun, Mon, etc. OR use =TEXT(A1,"DDDD") full days e.g. Sunday, Monday, etc. Please check the attached image for details. This will only work when cell A1 contains valid date value. At times incorrectly entered dates are interpreted by Excel as text. In those scenarios use =DATEVALUE(A1) in place of just A1 in the formulas above. read less
