Check the value using the DayOfWeek function in the formula editor and suppress accordingly.

if you want to exclude that data from your report altogether use a select statement of:
weekday({table.datefield}) in 1 to 5

Hi TF,
Just to clarify, do you want to suppress fields that are Sat or Sun or do you want to exclude them from your report.
If you want to eclude them altogther did you try the formula I gave you?
weekday({yourtable.yourdatefield}) in 1 to 5
This would exclude all Sat or Sun dates from yuor report.
Please give more info if this is not what you want to do.
Thanks

From Crystal Online Help:
For example, suppose you want to calculate the number of days between the order date and ship date, excluding Saturdays and Sundays:
Rem Basic syntax
Dim d1, d2
d1 = {Orders.Order Date}
d2 = {Orders.Ship Date}
formula = DateDiff("d", d1, d2) - _
DateDiff("ww", d1, d2, crSaturday) - _
DateDiff("ww", d1, d2, crSunday)
//Crystal syntax
Local DateTimeVar d1 := {Orders.Order Date};
Local DateTimeVar d2 := {Orders.Ship Date};
DateDiff ("d", d1, d2) -
DateDiff ("ww", d1, d2, crSaturday) -
DateDiff ("ww", d1, d2, crSunday)

FYI- looks like my other syntax was wrong in case you need it for future reference. I forgot it defaults to Sunday as "1" so it would have needed to be set to Monday=1 like:
weekday({yourtable.yourdatefield},crMonday) in 1 to 5

In teh formula replace
{Orders.Order Date} with your startdate field
{Orders.Ship Date} with your enddate field
for the two fields you need to calculate the difference between.
