Hi Nick

i don't think you can be entering the formula correctly.
Workday will never give you a date which is a Saturday or Sunday.
In this latest posting you are adding 7 days, not 15 as originally posted.
Using UK dates, and including just 16th Feb as a holiday, I get

Thanks Roger & Shane, not quite there yet though.

State date = 2/2/09, excel tells me 2/9/09 which is technically correct
but
the answer I am looking for is 2/10/09. Because I must give an additional
business day if solution lands on a Saturday or Sunday.

Start date = 2/3/09, excel tells me 2/10/09, which is what I am looking.

Start date = 2/4/09, excel tells me 2/11/09, answer that I am look for is
2/10/09

Hi

general format
=workday(startdate, days, holidays)

Try placing the start date in a cell e.g. B1 and a list of the holiday
dates
for the year in cells A1:A20
then
=Workday(B1,15,A1:A20)
will give your result

Hi there,

I am trying count 15 days from 2/4/09, with the following caveats. I
can't
count holiday's (2/16/09) and the solution can't land on a Saturday or
Sunday, if it does move it the following Monday.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
