Look at excel's help for =Workday() and you'll see that it's part of the
analysis toolpak. Help will even tell you how to install that addin.

If you look at excel's help for =weekday(), you'll see the support parms.

I tried the following with no luck.

Formula Error Message
=WORKDAY(E6,6) #NAME?
=WEEKDAY(E6,6) #NUM!

I tried Weekday because it is listed in Paste Function as a Function Name.
Do you have any other suggestions? I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi j0white

You could use the WORKDAY function, if the project start date was in
cell A1 and you wanted to add 6 working days the formula would be
=WORKDAY(A1,6)

If there are holiday dates or dates you do not want included the
formula would become =WORKDAY(A1,6, {38679}), where 38679 is the serial
number of the date, you can find the serial number of the data by typing
in a date and formating it as General

Alternatively you could have a list of holiday or dates you want
excluded and use the cell references of the dates instead, in which
case the formula would look like this =WORKDAY(A1,6,Z1)
