To get all Saturdays and Sundays of a month in Excel, use a formula to generate dates. Start with the first date, e.g., A1 = 1-Nov-2023. In the next cells, use the formula `=A1+1` to get sequential dates. Filter to display dates with WEEKDAY(A1, 2) > 5; this condition checks if the day is Saturday (6) or Sunday (7).
