Hello,

So I am building somewhat of a gantt chart. The following is a snap shot. What i am trying to do is bascially put a number "8" in this example in every day for that project. I do have holidays listed in a seperate holiday tab. So while i have this formula working i cannot figure out how to keep a holiday column blank and continue placing "8" until the duration is hit. Any help would be appreciated.

Cell Formulas

M1:CN1M1=IF(SUM(M4:M27)=0,"",SUM(M4:M27))

M4:CN7M4=IFERROR(IF(AND(M$3>=$F4,M$3<=WORKDAY($F4,$H4-1)),8,""),"")

J4:J45List=Holidays!$AA$2:$AA$4


Bonus - For workday formula why doesnt this work? I have some formulas in column F that i use to reference holidays but it errors out due to the """" (blank) cells based on the formulas. Again any help is much appreciated!

So while i have this formula working i cannot figure out how to keep a holiday column blank and continue placing "8" until the duration is hit.
Just for my understanding, as I'm still not clear -

In cell W5 on Schedule sheet you want formula to return Blank as it is a holiday marked in Holiday sheet?

Bonus - For workday formula why doesnt this work? I have some formulas in column F that i use to reference holidays but it errors out due to the """" (blank) cells based on the formulas. Again any help is much appreciated!
As of Workday Formula - I can't promise. I'm not at all good with Date formulae (Never needed them to use) - Still if you can Share XL2BB of the row/area where it gives error probably me or someone better than me will help you out on that.

holiday range :
Holidays!$C$3:$C$34
There is a cell with text value (C19) which cause error. Remove it to be blank.
Then, all WORKDAY can be added holiday range

G5:
=WORKDAY(F5,H5,Holidays!$C$3:$C$34)

M3:
=WORKDAY(Holidays!C3,1,Holidays!$C$3:$C$34)

N3, drag accross
=WORKDAY(M3,1,Holidays!$C$3:$C$34)

then M5, drag accross:
=IFERROR(IF(AND(M$3>=$F5,M$3<=$G5),8,""),"")

It gives the error because the formula shows """ if i just use F3:F4 as the range it throws the error when selecting this range on the holiday tab.

This still didnt work. Seems its something to do with the formula i have i even tried to add Value() function with no success. Curious if anyone can solve this thanks for the ideas tho.

My work around so far was filter function. Another question i have that i forget is when i reference the filtered section AB in a formula what does adding # at the end of the range do again? Here is a snap shot of what i mean see G5 formula:

@keef2
Actually you have multiple queries in a post - Though they all can be addressed

I was looking for the reply to above quoted part - If you can clarify.

I have another query that I shall post in next thread under to keep things simple for you and me to understand...

It gives the error because the formula shows """ if i just use F3:F4 as the range it throws the error when selecting this range on the holiday tab.
The second clarification I needed is -

where the above it is - I have tried hard to locate """ but didn't find in any formula

If you can paste the formula and cell address of the cell where it is giving error, probably I can think where things might be going wrong.

I think i solved this with:
