How can I add dates to column but repeat each 24 times, in Excel?

Question

Here is a sample from the data that I am looking at.

Hour Index  Visits
    0   67
    1   22
    2   111
    3   22
    4   0
    5   0
    6   22
    7   44
           


        

Answer 1

Please try: =UPPER(TEXT(DAY(2+A2/24),"ffffdd")). The first 2 is to control when the sequence starts.

Answer 2

try to use this formula (I suppose that your Hour column starts from A2 cell):

=TEXT(1+MOD(1+INT(A2/24),7),"ffffdd")

Note, that formula works well if your excel dates starts from 01.01.1900 (which is usually default for excel on PC). If you are using 1904 date system, you should use next formula:

=TEXT(2+MOD(1+INT(A2/24),7),"ffffdd")
