    Subtracting Dates:

    Hello,

    I have 2 date fields:

    Column I8: 10/10

    Column I9: 10/17

    In Column I10, I want to subtract the difference in dates (I9 - I8), including only Business Days, and return a value of 5.

    How do I go about doing that?

    Re: Subtracting Dates:

    The function is NETWORKDAYS.

    =NETWORKDAYS(I8, I9)

    The answer is actually 6, there are 6 working days in that range. If you don't want the result to be inclusive, put a -1 at the end.

    Re: Subtracting Dates:

    You could try networkdays =NETWORKDAYS(I8,I9) though that will return 6 instead of 5 as 10/10/2016 is a Monday and so is 10/17/2016 so it will count Monday-Friday as 5 and the add'l Monday as the 6th day.
