One of my most used formulas is my “Business Days” formula which allows you to calculate the number of business days between any two dates. But to do this you have to store a list of the holidays for each year. One of my readers (Mike Cook of Shepherd Hardware Products) provided a formula to calculate the common US holidays – even going so far as to provide a formula to calculate Good Friday, a pretty amazing feat. Now one of my Canadian readers (Greg Fendall at net-linx Americas) has provided the Canadian version of the holiday formula. If anyone would like to provide the formula for another country I will be happy to post it.
