Start date on pull down list being dynamic

Hi there,

I have an issue and not sure how to make it work.

created a speadsheet and on the sheet you can change the week using the list function in data validation.

Ex of weeks.

December-28-13
January-04-14
January-11-14
January-18-14
January-25-14
February-01-14
February-08-14
February-15-14
February-22-14
March-01-14
March-08-14
March-15-14
March-22-14
March-29-14
April-05-14

These are the start date of the weeks.

What I am looking to do is if the current date (=today()) is say March-20-14, I want the list to show all the weeks but be on March-15-14

For the life of me I cannot figure out how. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

That formula will do what you want.

It will be overwritten any any date you select.

But you can get a macro to reset the formula whenever the workbook is opened.

sub auto_open()

range("B5").formulaR1C1 =OFFSET(A1,MATCH(TODAY(),A1:A20,-1)-1,0)

End SUb

Not working for me. Attached a SS for an example ... Can you have a look and throw in what you think will work?

When you have moment, can you see my most recent post please?

Hi

The following code works for me.

It is in the attached workbook. To see it select sheet1, right click on the sheet name at the bottom of excel and select view code.

You'll have to forgive me, I have no clue how to apply this.

I'd like to be able to do it without using this as I'm not familiar with it.

Finally got it to work w/ index and match.

Thank you.
