Default Function to display day in text format


I need a formula that will display the day (i.e. Sunday, Monday, etc..)
based on a date in another cell (i.e. B2). Thanks in advance

Two other methods...pick your preference.

Use custom formating (Format Cells Custom enter dddd in the custom
window

=CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A1),"Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu", "Fri","Sat")
