I am trying to create a scheduling spreadsheet. I enter an end date in
the date code and then work backwards to get the deadline dates for the
different processes.

My problem is that we only work 5 days a week and often the deadlines
will be Saturday or Sunday.

Is there some way to get Excel to figure only a 5 day week and
completely ignore Saturday and Sunday?

Thanks so much for your help.
