    Updating dates on Separate tabs based on date in first tab

    I work for a company in which we print out monthly booking sheets. I need help with a formula. Each worksheet is for a seperate day and I would like to change the date on the first tab and have it update the rest of the tabs in the same cell for the entire month. I have attached what the workbook. Can someone please help me with this?

    Re: Excel 07 formula for dates

    Select Sheet T2, hold the shift key down and select Sheet T31.

    In F1 enter this formula:

    =Tours!$F$1+MID(CELL("filename",$A$1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",$A$1))+2,255)-1

    then right click any sheet tab and choose Ungroup Sheets

    Re: Excel 07 formula for dates

    thanks so much. I copy pasted the formula and it upated the month but I still have one problem..I am hoping since you knew that long formula maybe you know the answer to this..When I click on Tours! and change the date..say from April 1, 2009 to May 1, 2009 it does not automatically change the rest of the dates. Is there a way to do that since the formula is there? I had to re-do the entire set of steps to upate it for May. Thanks again...you are saving the day!
