Default Difference between dates

I need to calculate the difference between a date and todays date in
Workdays...

Also i would like to know how to i can have the same formula continue
through the whole row but instead of the difference between A1 and today
continue A2, A3, A4.... etc.

Default Difference between dates

Have a look at the NETWORKDAYS function in XL Help - it does exactly
what you want, and can also take account of holidays if these are
listed somewhere.

Ensure you have the ATP add-in installed if you are not using XL 2007.

Hope this helps.

Assuming you have added the analysis toolpak...

=NETWORKDAYS(A1,TODAY())

Presuming you want to compare A2 to today, just drag the formula across the
row.

Placing a $ in front of the 1 would cause this NOT to calculate across the
row.

Check the format of your cell. If it's a date, change it to a number. If
not, try widening the column.

Fred.
