I have a formula that correctly returns if a date is a mon-fri, weekend or public holiday.

Code:
=IF(A11="","",IF(COUNTIF(Sheet2!$G$87:$DO$97,A11),"Public Holiday",IF(WEEKDAY(A11,2)>5,"Weekend","Mon-Fri")))

I need it to now determine if the day is a mon-fri, saturday, sunday or public holiday.

Can someone help me with the excel formula to achieve this please?
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Holidays is a named range that holds the dates of all public holidays for the current year or the year pertinent to the range of dates that might be entered in cell A11.
Rich (BB code):
=IF(A11="","",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A11,Holidays,0)),"Public Holiday",CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A11),"Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")))

Thanks Joe but I already worked it out with this formula

Code:
=IF(A11="","",IF(COUNTIF(Sheet2!$G$87:$DO$97,A11),"Public Holiday",IF(WEEKDAY(A11)=1,"Sunday",IF(WEEKDAY(A11)=7,"Saturday","Mon-Fri"))))

A little shorter

Code:
=IF(A11="","",IF(COUNTIF(Sheet2!$G$87:$DO$97,A11),"Public Holiday",LOOKUP(WEEKDAY(A11,2),{1,6,7},{"Mon-Fri","Saturday","Sunday"})))
