Hi,

I need help to set a reminder in excel (preferably a formula) and to recur every week interval. Example, the date now is showing due date on 12/2/2023 and after 12/2/2023, it will automatically change to 19/2/2023 (in which I don't need to update anything and it will keep running).

The idea in my mind is something to do =today() but I can't squeeze anything out from my brain :(
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
@Flashbond not exactly, the return is showing me 5/2/2023 (back-date). I want it be 12/2/2023 (weekahead).
Also, I would like to add another reminder with 2 weeks interval too.
Thanks, sorry for being so demanding :cry:

This is not a reminder. This date will update itself only once a week. When you enter a new week, it will show the date one week ahead and won't change until the other week.
Excel Formula:
=TODAY()+8-WEEKDAY(TODAY()+7,1)
For two weeks:
=TODAY()+15-WEEKDAY(TODAY()+14,1)

@Flashbond Hi, do you have a way to make it every 4 days interval?

Btw, future reference for this community, I have enhanced the formula for every 2 weeks interval
=IF(MOD(WEEKNUM(TODAY()),2)=1,TODAY()+8-WEEKDAY(TODAY()+14,1)-1,TODAY()+15-WEEKDAY(TODAY()+14,1)-1)

not exactly, it will show 16/2 today, and tommorrow 17/2 if I open the excel. I want it to stay 16/2 when I open the excel on 12/2 to 16/2 everyday. Then on 17/2 to 20/2 everyday, it will show 20/2.

Example
Current dateCell will show these date
13/2/202316/2/2023
14/2/202316/2/2023
15/2/202316/2/2023
16/2/202316/2/2023
17/2/202320/2/2023
18/2/202320/2/2023
19/2/202320/2/2023
20/2/202320/2/2023
21/2/202324/2/2023
