Hello friends,

Below is what am trying to check

public int NumberOfDays(DateTime startDate, int endDate)
        {
            int numberOfDays = 0;
            DateTime end = startDate.AddDays(endDate);
            while (startDate != end)
            {
                if (startDate.DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Saturday && startDate.DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Sunday)
                {




                  numberOfDays++;

                
                
                }
                startDate = startDate.AddDays(1);
            
            }
            return numberOfDays;

First thing you need to have a function that get all days except weekends

public static List<DateTime> GetDatesExcludingWeekends(int year, int month)
        {
            return Enumerable.Range(1, DateTime.DaysInMonth(year, month))
                             .Select(day => new DateTime(year, month, day))
                             .Where(dt => dt.DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Sunday &&
                                          dt.DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Saturday)
                             .ToList();
        }

and when you are done check for the 25th day of the month

List<DateTime> lstdates = GetDatesExcludingWeekends(2014, 1);

            if (lstdates.Count >= 25)
            {
                for (int i = 0; i < lstdates.Count; i++)
                {

                    if (i == 25)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show("The 25th Day is: " + lstdates[i].ToString());

                    }


                }
            }
            else
            {
                MessageBox.Show("The Month does not have days that are more than 25th after excluding Weekends");


            }

i dont think you will get it 25th day if you exclude weekends , the highest might be 23

Good Luck
