I want to be able to use the textjoin function to pull data from our CPD table into a summary for the working week, driven by the date on a given Monday (this will be in a separate cell)

The CPD table will be constantly updated and will include old data (as need to keep a record of all undertaken) and future information.

I would like the data to display as a weekday

Really stuck on this, screen shot attached (sorry i cannot install the XL2BB add on as I'm on a work computer) Many thanks for any help!

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
Is this what you need?

How about one of these?:
Im assuming that your data is formatted as a table.
From the formula in F5 you will get one row for each entry. From the formula in F11 you will get all concatenated with a linebreak character:

Nearly.

All the data would need to be in a single cell, hence the TEXTJOIN function and would need to only include data from a specific date range, ie. from 08/01/2024 + 5 days

On a week where the year end/begins the formula in post 6 wont work properly. Because the week number for the first days will be 53 (or 54) and the rest will be 1.

I tried to take that into account in the formulas in post 3.

Good point, another option to correct that
Excel Formula:
=TEXTJOIN(CHAR(10),,BYROW(A5:C10,LAMBDA(br,IF(AND(INDEX(br,,3)-A1>=0,INDEX(br,,3)-A1<7),TEXTJOIN({": (",") "},,TEXT(INDEX(br,,3),"dddd"),CHOOSECOLS(br,2,1)),""))))
