Can anybody help with calculating the number of working days (e.g. Mon-Fri) between two dates.
 
Short way. (without taking into account of holidays)

Calculate the days difference.
Diff = ToDate - FromDate
Remainder = Diff mod 7
If Remainder = 6 then
Remainder = 5
End If
Working Days = Int(Diff / 7) * 5 + Remainder

 
The best way is to create a Time Dimension. Check Ralph Kimbell's book on Data Warehousing. Gives a good generic time dimension.
