Can anyone write a shorter formula, and can you also write me a formula using a lookup table for the formula below. This formula goes in 28 line.

=IF(OR($A6=$F$2,$A6=$F$2+7),"Sun",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+1,$A6=$F$2+8),"Mon",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+2,$A6=$F$2+9),"Tue",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+3,$A6=$F$2+10),"Wed",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+4,$A6=$F$2+11),"Thu",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+5,$A6=$F$2+12),"Fri",
IF(OR($A6=$F$2+6,$A6=$F$2+13),"Sat","")))))))

Thank
