The custom format will not work as I need the data to have the date except
for one special test.
This worked so thanks Lalit.
Evaluate("=Text(Day(""" & Sheets(RawData).Cells(count, BarDate).Text &
"""), ""dddd"")")
Oddly when I used "Sheet1" instead of RawData which is the same sheet I got
a subscript out of range but worked fine with the alias.
