Are you talking about doing all the work inside a stored proc?

I do have a database with the financial centre holiday calendars in it, and I 
have Class::DBI code hooking to it quite satisfactorily. In my case, I'd prefer 
to do the work in perl.

Can you explain what you mean by a recurrence.

I presume you didn't upload to CPAN. How do I get to the CVS?

In my case, I have an existing application and database.
