How do you create a weekly autofill in Numbers

I don't know how to create an automatic function to fill in weekly dates in numbers. At the moment I'm filling them in manually. Can anyone help me?

Use a single date in each cell, noting the beginning of the week.


Enter the starting date in A2,


Select cell A3 (one click) then press = toopen the Formula Editor.


Enter the formula below in the editor, then click the green checkmark to confirn the formula and close the Editor.


A2+"7d"


With cell A3 still selected, press command-C to copy the cell and its content (the formula).


Scroll to the bottom of th table.


Press the Shift key and click (once) the last cell in column A to expand the selection to include that cell and all cells between it and A3.


Press command-V to paste the formula into tall cells in the column.


IF you need the end of week dats as well, add a new column to the right of column A. In the new B2, enter the formula below:


A2+"6d"


Fill the formula down to the last cell in column B, using the same rocess as above.
