Hi! Your help is greatly appreciated!

  • Bid openings are always on Wednesday.
  • Advertisement dates can be any weekday.
  • A project must be advertised for a minimum of four weeks (holidays, weekends not excluded).
I need to calculate a date, based on the (advertisement date) that is a *Wednesday* at least four weeks following the (advertisement date).

Can you help me? :) 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.
Date in A1.

=IF(WEEKDAY(A1)<=4,A1-WEEKDAY(A1)+32,A1-WEEKDAY(A1)+39)

Format cell as date.

Welcome to the Board...

If your advertisement date is in B2, try:

Code:
=B2-WEEKDAY(B2+3)+35
