Subtract 1... the difference is because you are thinking "counting numbers"
as opposed to "subtraction of two numbers"... 1, 2, 3, 4 5 is five counting
numbers but the difference between 1 and 5 is four.

It worked, but it seemed to add an extra day....10 workdays, starts on a
Monday and the final date was a Monday, when it should be a Friday....any
way
of fixing that?

The WORKDAY function requires the Analysis ToolPak add-in to be loaded.
Click Tools/Add-Ins from Excel's menu bar and put a check mark next to
the
Analysis ToolPak item.
