    Angry Calculating difference between working days

    Hello,

    I have been trying to do find a simple solution to my below question...but I'm stuck. Would appreciate your assistance.

    -Let's say, I have a employee that is starting September 27, 2010 (F4)
    -Probationary period is set 3 months from starting day

    How can I calculate this taking into consideration I only want networking days?

    I found the below formula but it does not work as it takes into account weekends.

    =DATE(YEAR(F4),MONTH(F4),DAY(F4)+90)

    Thank you for your assistance.

    Re: Calculating difference between working days

    =WORKDAY(StartDate,# of Days, Holiday List -optional)
    =WORKDAY(F4,90)
    Does that work for you?

    Do you have a "=Workday" function available in Excel 2007?

    Use Conditional Formatting with a formula (depending on what cells you want to change color/formatting) like

    =WORKDAY(TODAY(),5)>=WORKDAY(F4,90)
