Thanks Ron. I can definitely work with this.

Next iCtr

CalcNetWorkdays = iWorkdayCount
End Function

Note: That function doesn't accomodate holidays.

Is that something you can work with?

No, I've not got it working, but I've found out why it may not be
working! The Data Analysis Toolpak isn't installed and, due to
security lock-down on Excel in my organisation, the Tools menu is
disabled. So, I can't activate it.

Where now?

Does anyone have any VBA code, that will do the same thing?

TIA

OK, here's what I want to do.

I want to build up a text string, using dates, and then display it.
Contained within that text string, will be the following information:

<today's date : <number of days since start of year : <number of
work days between today's data and a date in a specific cell

What I'm doing is building up a string, as follows:

strVar = Format(Now(), "Short Date")
strVar = """" & strVar & """" &
Application.International(xlListSeparator)
strTempDate = Format(TempDate, "Short Date")
strTempDate = """" & strTempDate & """"
strVar = strVar & strTempDate
strTempDate = "NETWORKDAYS(" & strVar & ")"
S = S & Format(strTempDate)

My theory is:

strVar is set to today's date = 12/07/2007
strVar then has the appropriate separator appended to it =
"12/07/2007",
strTempDate is formatted as a date = 12/11/2007
strTempDate then has the '"' characters added to it = "12/11/2007"
strVar is then set the two values, combined =
"12/07/2007","12/11/2007"

This is where it falls down. What I want to do, is insert the number
of work days that are between the two values. However, with the code
I have above, all I'm getting is the text
"NETWORKDAYS("12/07/2007","12/11/2007")" added to my string.

Can someone help?
