    Returning a Day from a numerical date formatt

    Hello

    Can someone tell me if there is a formula that can display the actual day from a numerical date:

    ie

    Cell A1 - 07/06/2013
    Cell B1 - Friday

    TIA
    Clive

    Formula in B1: =A1
    Format on cell B1: "DDDD"

    Highlight the cell, press CTRL-1, then select Number tab, select CUSTOM and apply the format DDDD.
