WORKDAY Help
You entitled this thread "WORKDAY Help", but did you look in Excel Help for
the WORKDAY or NETWORKDAYS function to see what it says is the cause of the #NAME? error? It's always worth looking in Help before you come here for any necessary further assistance. -- David Biddulph "S Boak" wrote in message ... Hi Folks: Thought this would be simple . . . .

Hi,
That because your using the Workday function which returns a date a number of workdays after the start date. Excel is taking your date in A1 and adding 39740 workdays, format a2 as general and you'll see why. You should be using NETWORKDAYS(a1,a2) and getting an answer of 13 Mike "Steve" wrote: Mike: Thanks very much. Loaded the ATP . . .
