Pls help to write an excel formula to display date, thanks! Cell A1 input a date - 1 Sep 10, Cell B1 write a formula to calculate & display the date which = (A1 + 14 days but if the result is a holiday then the date display in B1 will be back day) Case 1, A1 input 1 Sep 10 then cell B 1 will display 15 Sep 10 because (A1 + 14 days = 15 Sep 10 and 15 Sep 10 is a working day). Case 2, A1 input 1 Sep 10 then cell B 1 will display 14 Sep 10 because (A1 + 14 days = 15 Sep 10 but 15 Sep 10 is a holiday therefore B1 cell will back day to a non holiday day). I think we need to create a holiday table to pre-set the date in other worksheet, check the holiday table before display the result in cell B1.

    Require to write an MS excel formula,
    Input a date in cell A1, write a excel formula in cell B1 to display A1 + 14 days & exclude holidays if B1 result is a holiday, i think we need to create a holiday table in other worksheet, everytime calculate cell B1 need to check holiday table, example 1, cell A1 input 1 Sep 2010, cell B1 display 15 Sep 2010 because 1 Sep + 14 days = 15 Sep & 15 Sep is not a holiday, sample 2, cell A1 input 1 Sep 2010, cell B1 display 14 Sep 2010 because 1 Sep + 14 days = 15 Sep & 15 Sep is a holiday in holiday table.

This is too complicated for a help site like this, you are going to want to consult an excel forum, or some excel professional in your area. This is far beyond the scope of what you can expect for $15, which I'm sure you now realize after 10 days of trying.

Thanks

You are right. You have to have a table of holidays and then compare the result in this table and then work the new date. Like "if B1 = range (here give the range of the holidays table, just one column is required) then B1 = (B1 - 1). Something on those lines.

    I am using Open Office. And what is there in MS Office, OO has to be compatible with it.
    If is used as

    IF(Test; ThenValue; "OtherwiseValue")
    example IF (A1 <> value; B1 10 ; B1 9)
    Now the value of 'value' should be specified and can not be taken from the range in OO. I am not sure about MS Office. To achieve this we will have to use IF operator that many times as are the holidays with the operator OR. Example
    IF(A1 <> value1; B1 10 ; B1 9) OR
    IF(A1 <> value2; B1 10; B1 9)
    These are just two conditions. You can have as many as you want as are the holidays.
    Else you can try the range. It may work, you never know.
