Option to display date value as "THU, July 21, 2022" instead of "Thursday, July 21, 2022"?
I formatted my cell using the second Date option in the list of standard options, which includes the day of the week at the beginning.
But I would rather have the day of the week abbreviated instead of spelled out fully.
I tried going into the Custom category and changing "dddd" to "ddd", which from what I read, should abbreviate the day of the week, but it does not.
Is there a way to do this?
ddd, mmmm dd, yyyy
that worked for me.
