Hi there,
I have a week in sheet1. For eg.
01/07/07 in A1, 02/07/07 in B1 ....... 07/07/07 in G1.
Now in sheet2 I want to continue 08/07/07 in A1 ..... 14/07/07 in G1
and so on and so forth in following worksheets.
How can I automatically obtain the dates in corresponding columns in the following worksheets?

Thank you
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
HI
try the following codes
Paste them in the macro window(alt F8)

Code:
For a = 1 To Sheets.Count
For b = 1 To 7
c = (a - 1) * 7 + b - 1
Worksheets(a).Cells(1, b) = Cells(1, 1) + c
Next b
Next a
Enter starting date in Cell A1 of sheet1 and Run the macro. It will fill the rest.

It did give the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 in sheet1 and 8,9,10,11,12,13,14 in sheet2 and so on so forth but I need 1/07/07, 02/07/07 as dates not as the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7. Is it possible?

Thanks

try
Code:
Sub test()
Dim i As Long, ii As Long, n As Long
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
     For ii = 1 To 7
          Sheets("sheet" & i).Cells(1,ii).Value = DateAdd("d", n, "01/07/07")
          n = n + 1
     Next
Next
End Sub

HI
I suspect you have not entered the date in cell A1. Numbers 1 to 7 get added to A1 to give successive dates.

yes, I now have entered date in A1 and it works for sheet1, sheet2 and sheet3. But when I copy the sheet3 as sheet 4 it does not automatically change in sheet 4.

May I also mention here that sheet1 sheet2 sheet3 are actually named week1 week2 week 3...... week 27. So every new week I copy the worksheet and enter new values for week28. What I need is the automatic continuation of the date. Any suggestion pls?

Code:
Sub test()
Dim i As Long, ii As Long, n As Long, myDate As Date
myDate = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("a1").Value
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
     For ii = 1 To 7
          Sheets("sheet" & i).Cells(1,ii).Value = DateAdd("d", n, myDate)
          n = n + 1
     Next
Next
End Sub

still the same, when I copy sheet3 to sheet4, the dates remain as of sheet3, it automatically does not change to new dates (15 to 21 of july), does not advance to 22 to 28 of july

Then use Change event
to sheet1 module
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address(0,0) <> "A1" Then Exit Sub
If (IsEmpty(Target)) + (Not IsDate(Target.Value)) Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
test
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
