Default DateAdd not working correctly. Need fast help!!

I have a query with the following field:
DateAdd("d",1-Weekday([Start_Date]),[Start_Date])

What is need it to do is calculate all the items between Monday and Friday
based on Monday's Date. So, if there are 10 sites in the list between Monday
and friday, I want to display those 10 sites with Monday's Date as the column
header. The header also needs to come in Medium Date Format.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Ben

It's working. It's not working the way you want it to. Try this variation.
Note the additional argument in the Weekday function - it now uses MONDAY (2)
as the first day of the week instead of the default of Sunday (1).

DateAdd("d",1-Weekday(Start_Date,2),Start_Date)
