Default calculate number of days

i need to calculate the # of working days between 2 columns (I and J).
i'm using formula =NETWORKDAYS(I2,J2). Is there any way to use a variable
somehow so I don't have to manually change the formula for each line in
column K?..........?


ex:
=NETWORKDAYS(I2,J2)..........=NETWORKDAYS(I3,J3).. ......=NETWORKDAYS(I4,J4)

tia............charlene

Enter the formula to a cell and drag it down...OR even copy paste the cell
(not the formula)

Enter the formula below in K2
=NETWORKDAYS(I2,J2)
Copy K1
Selct K3:K100 (change 100 to your last row)
Press CTRL-V (i.e. paste the copied formula)
