Try this...
A1 = some date =WORKDAY(A1,3) Format as Date Note that the WORKDAY 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 WORKDAY function. It'll tell you how to fix the problem. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "LSG" wrote in message ...
