    Formula to workout target dates

    Hi guys,

    I'd like some help with formulas on excel 97 as I'm not very good with them.

    We have a spreadsheet at work with the following 4 targets:

    9 week target date - Cell D1
    15 day target day - Cell R1
    10 day target date - Cell Y1
    20 day target date - AE1

    Now what I need is a formula to workout each target from a date I enter in cell B1. Here's the tricky bit, I also want excel to exclude all weekends and holidays.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Steve

    try the =workday() function
    If this function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error, install and
    load the Analysis ToolPak add-in
    (tools/add-ins and tick the analysis toolpack box)
    =workday(a1,20,b1:b15) where 20 is the number of days weekends will be omitted and b1:b15 say contains a list of holiday dates
