Calculate Weekdays in ASP

Hi All

I need to calculate the number of working days between the two dates entered
on an ASP page. I am not that great a coder in ASP and was wondering if
someone can help.

Basically the form has Two textboxes to enter dates

From Date - Fdate
To Date - TDate
Number of days - NoDays (This field needs to be populated by the function
once the function/sub has been executed)

The function should be able to calculate number of working days between the
two dates but MUST exclude the list of public holidays between the two days.
The list of public holidys for each year is stored in a database table.

The form I am using also has two check boxes called

Include Saturdays
Include Sundays

If any of the two checkboxes are checked it must include the relevant days
in the calculation if not then sat/sun must be excluded from the
calculation.

Thanks in advance for your help it is highly appreciated

Since VBScript has absolutely no concept of your company's holidays, you
might be better off using a calendar table.

I have two date fields: -Inquiry Date -Action Date I'm trying to use a query expression on this. Using the datediff expression, I can get the amount of days that seperate the two dates. But I would like to know how I can get only a count of the weekdays only. I'm not sure if there is another expression I can use to get the result.

I'm thinking of an integer field in which I could write values up to 1+2+4+8+16+32+64 and to use these values later. Each of the individual values would represent a weekday from Sunday to Saturday. So if I were to look at a record for a newspaper publication and see 9 in the field, I could interpret that as meaning the publication was released on Sundays (1) and Wednesdays (8). A value of 127 would indicate a daily paper publishing...
