How to Find the Next Business Day in MS Access

In this Microsoft Access tutorial I'm going to teach you how to calculate the next business day following any date in your queries. Then we'll also use the same logic to calculate the previous business day.

Aimee from El Paso, Texas (a Platinum Member) asks: I need to be able to calculate the next business day following an order date. For example if the order comes in on a Saturday I need the following Monday. How can I do this?
