example:
cell F1 is the start date 07-01-06
cell E1 is the end date 07-29-06
cell F3 is the answer 4

I just need to count the fridays between two dates

Try

=SUM(IF(WEEKDAY(F2-1+ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&TRUNC(F3-F2)+1)))=6,1,0))

It's an array so need to press Crtl + ****f + enter to work

Just because I like to make things difficult =)

=IF(6-WEEKDAY(F1)-1, QUOTIENT((E1-F1-(6-WEEKDAY(F1))),7)+1,
QUOTIENT((E1-F1-6), 7)+1)

Thanks. I used that and it worked for me. I was pretty amazed, I'm still
trying to figure it out.
