RE: business days
This might help get you started: 1) get all the dates between 2 dates using something like SELECT the_date FROM table WHERE the_date BETWEEN CreateODBCDate(date1) AND CreateODBCDate(date2) then 2) on your CFOUTPUT, something like CFOUTPUT QUERY="queryname" CFIF #DayOfWeek(the_date)# NEQ 1 AND #DayOfWeek(the_date)# NEQ 7 #the_date# BR /CFIF /CFOUTPUT -Original Message- From: Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2001 5:31 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: business days i am using SQLServer7. is there a function or custom tag to get the number of business days between 2 dates? ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: business days
There isn't a function in SQL server. For such a function to work everywhere, you would need to tell it what country you're in supply data on what holidays are scheduled. Often, holidays cannot be determined programmatically are not known very far in advance. Reuters has this data somewhere. Not sure if it's on the Web. Maybe Bloomberg too?

RE: business days
Alex, Here is how to do it in SQL Server (assuming Saturday and Sunday are not business days) Select count(*) as daycount From DateTable Where DateTable.EntryDatetime = [beginnindate] AND DateTable.EntryDateTime = [enddate] AND ((DateName(dw, DateTable.EntryDatetime) != 'Saturday') AND (DateName(dw, DateTable.EntryDatetime) != 'Sunday')) -Original Message- From: Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2001 8:31 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: business days i am using SQLServer7. is there a function or custom tag to get the number of business days between 2 dates? ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
