And I'm wondering whether the problem is well defined. Why count weekdays only? Shouldn't it be workdays? If we mean business.

Then it's not just weekend days, it's holidays as well. So we better not go with a day-of-week parameter, but a date parameter, and have a list of workdays... a cursor, even better, which would contain all workdays. Then simply locate that date in the list (assuming we aren't starting off a day off) and then just skip n days - and return that record's date. Then we're depending only on the accuracy of this calendar.
