Hi, if your original cell is A1, in B1 enter =a1-1 and so forth -- Pecoflyer Cheers - 'Firefox 3.5' (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html) really IS fast ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pecoflyer's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/member.php?userid=14 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...d.php?t=115220 |

excel weekday function
Since you said "weekday", I'm assuming you want to skip Saturdays and
Sundays. Give this formula a try... =WORKDAY(A1,-1) This function is built into XL2007; for earlier versions of Excel, the WORKDAY function is part of the Analysis ToolPak add-in so, if you don't have this loaded, click Tools/Add Ins on the menu bar and put a check mark next to "Analysis ToolPak". If you check the help files for this function, you will see it has an optional 3rd argument which will allow you to skip over holidays too. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "SAM" wrote in message ...
