    Count only work days, not weekends

    I have a document that I need to keep track of the number of work days (5 a week) we go without an issue. I have it set up currently to count the number of days with a formula:

    = today()-A1 with A1 holding the date of the last occurance. The issue with this is that it counts weekends.

    Is there an easy way to calculate only work days?

    Thanks,
    Josh

    Try this...

    =NETWORKDAYS(A1,TODAY())

    Note that the NETWORKDAYS function requires the Analysis ToolPak add-in be installed if you're using a version of Excel prior to Excel 2007. If you enter the formula and get a #NAME? error look in Excel help for the NETWORKDAYS function. It'll tell you how to fix the problem.
