I have been trying to get NETWORKDAYS formula to work but for some reason it just won't do it. I have resorted to using the below formula but it just doesn't seem to want to take into account the holidays.

so the formula is: IF(WEEKDAY(A3,2)>5,"",NETWORKDAYS(A$2,A3,$R$3:$R$10))

A3 is the actual date, A2 is the first date, R3 to R10 are the holidays. you can see from the results below (06 May is supposed to be a bank holiday, included in R3:R10) but it is still bringing back a result.

[TABLE="width: 192"]
<colgroup><col width="90" style="width: 68pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 3291;" span="2"> <col width="75" style="width: 56pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 2742;"> <tbody>[TR]

When I use just NETWORKDAYS(A$2,A2), it brings back numbers for weekends:

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
What do you want the results to be, and why ?
If 6th May IS a holiday, then the results look OK to me.
Am I missing something ?

Is this what you need?

=IF(A3=WORKDAY(A3-1,1,$R$3:$R$10),NETWORKDAYS(A$2,A3,$R$3:$R$10),"")
