When I use the formula
=WORKDAY("12/5/05",4) it returns 12/9/05
and
=WORKDAY("12/5/05",5) returns 12/12/05

What I really need is a formula that will let me add 5 days (or whatever) to
a date, count that date as the first day, then return the date that would be
the 5th date.

e.g.
12/5/05, 5
12/5/05, 12/6/05, 12/7/05, 12/8/05, 12/9/05
so it should return 12/9/05, not 12/12/05
=WORKDAY("12/5/05",5)-1 returns 12/11/05, so this is not the answer.

I also have a range of holidays in the formula but that is not an issue
here.

Can anyone help me with this formula? I seldom use Excel, so this is quite
baffling to me.

Thanks,
Mich
