Holidays to Exclude from Working Days
See help (F1) on the WORKDAY() function
This worksheet lets you create a list of dates to be excluded from the number of Working Days. The
WORKDAY() function already excludes weekends, so you only need to list dates for holidays and other
non-working days. If your project spans more than one year, make sure you add dates for each year. The
named range, holidays, is a dynamic named range ending at the last blank cell in column A. The
comments column is just for your reference.
