If the calculate function is not working, check your security settings.
It needs to allow Java/ActiveX scripting or something like that.
The basic method behind the algorithm is to start from the Base Date and keep
stepping to the next day for "Days Away" number of steps. However, any
days passed by which are "non-business days" are skipped. A business day is
generally defined as a weekend or holiday.
It is not necessary to use that definition of business day however.
The calculator is very flexible in allowing the specification of which days and/or
dates should be excluded and skipped in the counting.
Use the "Days of the Week" controls to select which days should be included
(e.g. weekdays) and which should be excluded (e.g. weekends) in the counting.
Use the "Excluded Dates" controls to define which specific dates count as holidays
that should be excluded from the counting.
