Adding Days to a Date excluding weekends

[srsteiner]

Looking for a way to add days to a date and exclude weekends in the process.

Ex.

If my date is Mar. 16. and I need to add 5 days to it. The result I'm looking for is Mar. 23 (not adding the Mar. 20 and Mar 21 into the total), not Mar. 21.

Want to just add "business" or "working day" to the date.

Thanks!!

Well, thats the point of these Calculations... weekends are days "Off" ostensibly for religious reasons.

It's rather presumptuous to suppose that all people have Sunday, Saturday, or Friday Exclusively.
I think the Minus 1 is a Valid calc in context, Especially if you are including the day stated ....

My question still stands given the nature of the calculations involved ... I know that some friends in Haifa have their "Monday", as Sunday ... opens up a whole new realm of possibilities.
