Simplest way to calculate the number of business days left in the month?

[sherifffruitfly]

Hi all,

The easiest thing I can see is to use this little class:

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/busdatescalculation.asp

And read holidays from a text file into a Hashtable.


Example of the functionality I need:

DateTime iHateValDay = DateTime.Parse("14 Feb 2007");
int daysRemaining = DaysLeft(iHateValDay);

Here, daysRemaining should be 9.


Does anyone know of a simpler way to achieve this?


Thanks for any ideas,

cdj

Hi,

Well, if your application happens to be database bound then the
easiest way to do this is to use a calendar table and SQL queries to
return the date calculations.
