Microsoft Excel 2010: =NETWORKDAYS()

I am having a problem with the =NETWORKDAYS() function.

Here is my table:

        A            B            C
    Start date    End Date      #Days
1   15/05/2012    17/05/2012     

In C1 I have entered the formula =NETWORKDAYS(A1,B1)

The answer should be 2, but I'm getting 01/01/1900.

For each date in the table, I have used the date function, eg: =DATE(2012,05,15)

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks

You formula =NETWORKDAYS(A1,B1) should give the result 3.

And you are getting result as 01/01/1900 which is saying value is 1 but cell format is set to Date. That's why it is displaying in date format. Change cell number format to General.

To fix this right-click on your cell and choose Format Cells or navigate to Format -> Cells. From the window that appears click Number and choose 0 as the number of decimals.
