[libreoffice-users] [Calc] Automate creation of series of full date (ie. Day name, Date)?

2015-07-15 Thread Gilles
Hello

I often use Calc to prepare multi-day trips, and have to write series that
look like this:

Mon 1 Aug
Tue 2 Aug
Wed 3 Aug
etc.

Does Calc come with a way to automate this tedious task, or is there some
macro that I could copy/paste from somewhere?

Thank you.

You can just enter the first two values (A1 and A2), format them however
you want (highlight them, right click - format cell - tab to Number or
Format - forget exact wording, set to date and the way you want it to
look, exit the dialog, then select A1 and A2 (highlight), select (left
click and hold) on the bottom right corner, then just drag it down. It will
fill down for you.


Best,
Joel
