Date & time calculations and I/O

Do you know of a way to skip holidays on a date calculation?

Use NETWORKDAYS(start_date,end_date,holidays)

Returns the number of whole working days between start_date and end_date. Working days exclude weekends and any dates identified in holidays. Use NETWORKDAYS to calculate employee benefits that accrue based on the number of days worked during a specific term.

Does SpreadsheetConverter support date calculations?

Yes.

You can see an example below, were we build the date using Excel's date function and substract the values.

SpreadsheetConverter will convert the date calculations into JavaScript.

I have a dropdown list with dates but SpreadsheetConverter shows 37000,37001,... ?

SpreadsheetConverter cannot handle dates in dropdown lists.

Instead use DATE to build a date. See

http://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/manual/date_dropdown_lis t.htm

What is your recommendation for TIME data entry -- e.g. time in and time out?

Use 24 hour clock, or if 12 hour clock is very important, use 2 fields one for 0-11 and a dropdown list for AM/PM and use TIME().

Or you can use TIME to build time values, for an example see

http://www.spreadsheetconverter.com/manual/date_dropdown_lis t.htm

To output date, use date formats, for example 'hh:mm'
