Default Difference - except for Saturdays and Sundays

Should of course be

=SUM(INT((A2-WEEKDAY(A2+1-{2;3;4;5;6})-A1+8)/7))

Hi,

How can I get the difference in days between 2 dates, less any
Saturdays or Sundays that fall within the period, returned in A3?

e.g.

A1 = Start date of "5-Dec-07"
A2 = Finish date of "28-Dec-07"
A3 = Formula calculates days worked as "17"

Cell A3 would return 17 days, i.e. 23 less the 3 Saturdays and the 3
Sundays that fall within the priod.

Any help would be appreciated, Ricky.
