Hi,Even more simple:Just create a number format equal to 'nnn" "d'
(without the single quotes) and set the content of the cell to
$January.A5. The nnn is the day of the week and the d is the day in the
month in a date format.
The only thing to remember is that the "d" is valid for English-similar 
locales (my French locale equivalent is "j"). If you want to create
something that is multi-locale compatible, you will then need to use
the TEXT function with a dynamic format, something like this which will
work for both the French and English locales:
 =TEXT($January.A5,IF(TEXT(DATE(2020,1,1),"jj")="jj","nnn"" ""d","nnn""
""j")). The format can be calculated on another sheet (or in a hidden
cell) and referred to using a cell name, which would give a formula
like this:  =TEXT($January.A5,DATE_FORMAT) if the name of the cell is
DATE_FORMAT.
I hope this helps.Rémy.

Peter,
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish.
1- The date in January.$A5 is 12/27/2021. You can see that by
formatting cell January.$A5 as date. 
2- The date is internally represented as number 44557. You can see
this by formatting January.$A5 as number.
3- To get the day of the month use formula =DAY(January.$A5)
4- Your formula generates a error because you try to do arithmetic
with a string (“Monday “). Use ‘&' i.s.o. ‘+’ to append.      The
formula then becomes:
="Monday      “&DAY($January.$A5)
To het the weekday of the specified day use the next formula:
=TEXT(WEEKDAY($January.A5);"NNN")&"           "&DAY($January.A5)
Success,Rob.

In cell         A4 is the following code;

="Monday               "+January.$A5

January.$A5          has the number 27 in it (December 27)

What         appears in cell A4 as a result is- Monday    44557

What is         needed is- Monday    27

I've         tried reformatting cell A4 to a date or text or a
number to no         success.



Any         idea how to fix this?



Thanks,

Peter
