Hello...

I have a quick, and probably insanely easy question regarding the
calculation of NETWORKDAYS. I cannot get the following formula to
return a "0" value:

=IF(F23="",0,NETWORKDAYS(E23,F23,L$6:L$14)-SIGN(F23-E23))

E23 F23 G23
03/09/06 03/09/06 1

In G23, the formula above returns "1" and not "0". If I change F23 to
03/10/06, I get "1", which is correct. And if I change F23 to
03/08/06, I get "-1" which is correct. What am I missing??

Thanks in advance for what I am sure is a simple fix...

Hello,

I suggest to take
=IF(F23="",0,NETWORKDAYS(E23,F23,L$6:L$14)-SIGN(F23-E23+0.5))
or to have a look at http://www.sulprobil.com/html/date_formulas.html

NETWORKDAYS includes both start and ending date but your SIGN fct
returns 0 if both dates are equal (so add 0.5).

HTH,
Bernd

=IF(F23="",0,(ABS(NETWORKDAYS(E23,F23,L$6:L$14))-1)*SIGN(F23-E23))
