Excel For Mac Array Calculation
I’ve a simple formula for calculating the Xth Weekday of ANY month. It takes four inputs: Year, Month, Week, and Day. And requires a couple of lookup tables for data validation, one with special.
The FREQUENCY function returns a vertical array of numbers. Excel for Office 365, Excel 2019, Excel 2016, Excel 2013, Excel 2011 for Mac, Excel. These examples simply look at the data found in cells B2:B10 and calculate all.
The History It all started when my wife mentioned there were a couple of meetings she had to schedule at work, one on the second Tuesday of every month and the other on the third Tuesday of every month. That got me to thinking about how to create a formula in Excel to calculate those dates. After getting a partial solution, other things took precedence and it slipped from my mind until posted a on how to figure out what date Thanksgiving falls on each year, the 4th Thursday of November, in the USA.
His solution and all the variations provided in the comments (I posted one too) was focused and specific to one day (Thursday) of one week (the 4th) in one month (November). Albeit a in that article showed another formula solution to Canada’s Thanksgiving day that takes place on the 2nd Monday of October. This served to spur me on and finish what I started. I hope you like it. 5 thoughts on “ Calculate the Xth Weekday of Any Month in Excel” • Pingback: Tweets that mention Calculate the Xth Weekday of Any Month in Excel Excel Semi-Pro -- Topsy.com • Andrew Burns I was looking to use your formula here to build a data array of economic data. Some economic data, such as employment statistics, are released on the first Friday of a month. My question is, say I had a vector in excel (single column) of julian dates (formatted into any date format I like), how can I alter your formula such that it gives me a value from 1 to 5?

In other words, today, 01/16/13, would be a “3”, for the 3rd Wednesday of January 2013, etc., etc. • Post author What you are looking for is the week number of the month and the weekday. My formula won’t give you that and neither will a variation of that formula. I’m not sure how you would do this exactly. I tried to use the WEEKNUM formula to get the week of the year, but this is a cumulative number that ends in December at week 52 or 53, so you don’t get 1 to 5 for each month. I tried subtracting the week number from the previous month’s end date, but that doesn’t work in January and there are weeks that spilt the end of month so you have to specify the day of the week as well.
Perhaps I’m taking the wrong approach, but the short of it is I haven’t figure out this problem yet.
