I'm trying to count the days between two dates, excluding Saturdays and Sundays. I've written this code so far
Dim startDay As Integer
Dim endDay As Integer
Dim days As Integer
Dim count As Integer
startDay = dtpStartDate.Value.DayOfWeek
endDay = dtpEndDate.Value.DayOfWeek
For days = startDay To endDay
If days = 0 Or days = 6 Then 'Sunday = 0, Saturday = 6
count += 1
End If
Next
lblNoOfDays.Text = count
It works fine if you choose the two dates within the same week. (ex: 23rd Jan to 27th Jan, gives the result 5) But if I set them to dates in different weeks, (ex : 23rd Jan to 30th Jan, gives the result 1), it gives incorrect results.
I know it happens because of the loop but I can't think of a way to overcome this. Can anyone give me a suggestion, solution??
Thank you
Dim count = 0
Dim totalDays = (dtpEndDate - dtpStartDate).Days
For i = 0 To totalDays
Dim weekday As DayOfWeek = startDate.AddDays(i).DayOfWeek
If weekday <> DayOfWeek.Saturday AndAlso weekday <> DayOfWeek.Sunday Then
count += 1
End If
Next
lblNoOfDays.Text = count
