Hi Maaiz,

In addition to Patnaik's formula, if you want to start with an upper case letter use this formula:
=UPPER(LEFT(TEXT(A1,"dddd"),1))&RIGHT(TEXT(A1,"dddd"),LEN(TEXT(A1,"dddd"))-1)

Best regards,
Trowa

Hi Maaiz,

Very strange, maybe Patnaik has some wisdom to share.

Otherwise you could upload your file for us to look at, but it is probably a "settings" problem which is specific to your pc. But we can try, right?

Use www.speedyshare.com to upload your file. Always be carefull with personal info.

Best regards,

Hi

There are several reasons

1. In A1 figure is not in date format may be it is in General or text format

2. May be Your system setings is MM/DD/YYYY and you put the figure in A1 as DD/MM/YYYY

So please check the settigs nd inform us


Thanks
