I want to get Day name from a specific date on Google Spreadsheet (also tried on Microsoft Excel Online).
I have written specific date on a cell B1: 2020-03-31
then custom number format it as: yyyy-mm-dd
I also have a formula on it's side in A1 =day(B1)
the result is Tuesday
. This is correct.
But when I enter a new date: 2020-04-01
the result of the formula have gone wrong.
What's causing this and how to solve it? Did I use the wrong formula?
Thanks.
edit: found the issue it was because column of A/C was formatted as number of day of month, not the date itself.
correct formula would be: =TEXT(B1,"dddd")
