Weeknum

[Mike D.]

Hi. I'm having a problem with the WEEKNUM function. I have Excel 2002 and
the formula works fine. When I transfer the file to another machine with
Excel 2003, it will not recognize the command. If I look at Date functions
within Excel 2003, WEEKNUM is not one of the options .... Does anyone know
why this is?

Thanks,
Mike.

If this function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error, install and
load the Analysis ToolPak add-in.

Tools|addins

You may need the installation CD (depending on what was installed).

WEEKNUM is part of the Analysis ToolPak. That will need to be installed on
any machine in which you want to use it. To install:

Select Tools
Select Add-Ins
Check the box next to "Analysis ToolPak"
Click OK

HTH,
Elkar

Thanks, Guys!

I avoid the AT functions when possible for the very reason you describe.
Here is another way to get the week number:

Here is a great place to find substitutes for most of the AT functions:
