Default Date Calculation Problem

I just realized that myself.

You know, I checked that for the Aug. dates and ended up looking at the
wrong month.

I'm an idiot!

Thank you for your quick response.

I'm not sure about the workings of the "Workday" function but if you notice
something he 8/18 is a Friday, 8/21 is a Monday. 8/12 is a Saturday,
8/14 is a Monday. 10/07 is a Saturday, 10/09 is a Monday. 9/19 is a
Tuesday. 11/01 is a Wednesday.

It would seem to me that the Workday function will only give results from
Monday through Friday (the standard work week). Therefore if you put in 8/17
it should result in 8/18.

This one is really stumping me...

I have a spreadsheet that contains a column of dates, the next column should
calculate that date plus 1 day. I only want workdays.

My formula is: =WORKDAY(A5,1)

I'm getting:

Column A Column B
Open Date/Time Close Date/Time
09/19/2006 2:19 PM 09/20/2006 12:00 AM
08/18/2006 12:41 PM 08/21/2006 12:00 AM
11/01/2006 8:25 AM 11/02/2006 12:00 AM
08/12/2006 11:40 AM 08/14/2006 12:00 AM
10/07/2006 12:20 PM 10/09/2006 12:00 AM

The dates in Sept and Nov are working. The dates with Aug and Oct are not.
(They are adding more than 1 day.) They all have the same formula and the
formats are all the same.

What could I be missing here?

Thank you,

Rachel
