I'm trying to get Excel to calculate the number of Mondays, Tuesdays, etc in
a given month but I haven't found a function that addresses this task. Any
ideas?

=4+(DAY(A1-DAY(A1)+35)<WEEKDAY(A1-DAY(A1)-DoW))

where DoW is the day number to test, 1 Sun, 2 Mon

You could use this with a helper column,

=SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(DATE(2006,1,K1:K31),1)=2))

Where K1:K31 contains the numbers 1 - 31 and "=2" is the day of the
week you are looking for (1=Sun, 2=Mon...)

If you don't want to use a helper column just type out the numbers in
the formula where the K1:K31 range is like {1,2,3,4,,,,,,31}.
