trying to get the Day of the week (ie. Mon, Tue, Wed) to return based on a date column. Tried this, but getting and unparseable error - what am I missing?


=IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 1, "SUN", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 2, "MON", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 3, "TUES", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 4, "WED", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 5, "THU", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 6, "FRI", IF(WEEKDAY[Bid Date] = 7, "SAT")))))))


Snip of the columns;
