    Autofill: Need to autofill one week block, (5) weekday only into cells.

    What I need to do I'm sure is simple but I can't get the formula/format correct. What I want to do is be able to autofill weekday only, one week blocks at a time. For example, I would like to be able to enter 6/20/05 - 6/24/05, select the cell and then drag it to x amount of cells to have it autofill the same format. So 4 cells would look like this:

    6/20/05-6/24/05
    6/27/05-7/1/05
    7/4/05-7/8/05
    7/11/05-7/15/05

    Non-business weekdays aren't a problem, I just need the 5 day, weekday, one week blocks to be able to autofill. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    How about using a couple of columns?

    I put this in A1:
    6/20/2005
    I put this in A2:
    =a1+7

    I put this in B1:
    =TEXT(A1,"mm/dd/yy")&"-"&TEXT(A1+4,"mm/dd/yy")
    And dragged down to B2.

    Then I selected A2:B2 and dragged down as far as I wanted.

    Then I could select column B and
    edit|copy
    edit|paste special|Values
    and
    delete column A
    (if I wanted.)

    (Actually, I think I'd just hide column A so I could use it later.)
