To return the week number of a date we can use the WEEKNUM formula. It will
return a number that indicates where the week falls numerically within a
year. If this function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error,
install and load the *Analysis ToolPak* add-in. That is, *Tools*>*Add-ins*.

The formula syntax for the WEEKNUM formula is;

*WEEKNUM(serial_num,return_type**)
*
*Serial_num* is any valid date. *See how Excel stores dates &
times<http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/ExcelDateandTimes.htm>
**. *
*Return_type* is a number that determines on which day the week begins. The
default for *Return_type* is 1, or it can be omitted and the week begins on
a *Sunday*. If *Return_type* is 2, the week begins on a *Monday*.

*An example of WEEKNUM formula is as shown below
*
*=WEEKNUM(A1) *
OR
*=WEEKNUM(A1,2)*

Where A1 houses a valid Excel date.

*To hard code the date we could use;*

*=WEEKNUM("3 Apr 2005")*
OR
*=WEEKNUM("3 Apr 2005",2*
