excel version
At least in Excel 2007 a simple formula is
=TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY(),3)
The 3 tells WEEKDAY to number the week as Monday=0,Tuesday=1...Sunday=6
If you need a macro
Sub ReturnCurrentMonday()
'Return Monday of current week.
Dim dteMonday As Date
dteMonday = Date - Weekday(Date, vbMonday) + 1
Selection.Value = dteMonday
End Sub
will put Monday's date in the currently selected cell
