Date formula based on =today()?

Posted by Lori on December 05, 2001 10:04 AM

Is there a formula that will return the next workingday (the date) based on the formula =today()?
Thanks to anyone who can help me!

=WORKDAY(TODAY(),1) should work.

You could also use
=(NOW()+1)+(WEEKDAY(NOW())=6)*2+(WEEKDAY(NOW())=7)

What you would gain over =Workday function would the need for you (and others) to install the analysis toolpak.

What you would lose versus the Workday function is the ability to exclude holidays.

Good luck

One more question on this?

Thanks all- for the answers. One more question...I am trying to concatene 2 cells, this is one of them. The result I'm getting for the date part is not formatted correctly. Excel is returning a number instead of the date.

Use =A1 & TEXT(A2,"dd-mm-yyyy") where A2 is the cell with the date (NT)
