Hi

You could just change the formatting of the cell eg to custom of

dddd

Or you could use a formula if you don't already have a date and want a text value:

=TEXT(TODAY(),"dddd")

We don't know how things have been declared but in general terms:

FWIW you can insert static time stamps natively using CTRL + ; (with Custom Format applied to show as Friday)

Are you talking about a Formula or VBA?

This should work in VBA
