Not sure exactly what your doing in your calculations but if you were adding using DATEADD

then it would be

DATEADD(DATE1, 'BD', 1);

BD represents business day which can be configured by using the SET method.

To see what are business days
? SET BUSDAYS (i think the default is M-F)

SET BUSDAYS = '_MTWTF_'; either have the first letter of the day or an underscore if its not a business day.
If you wanted to include Saturday as a business day then it would be
SET BUSDAYS = '_MTWTFS';

Hopefully its what your looking for,
Leo

Thanks Leo. I had a bit of a brain freeze. I got it using DATEDIF.
