I would agree with Gait. In the UK week numbers tended to be used in the 
automotive branch and, due to the outsourcing which took place about ten 
years ago, I have not had to deal with them for a while. The logic 
required to move between dates expressed using week numbers and 
conventional dates is not trivial, and I used to find it easiest to have 
an external program generate conversion tables for the specific 
transformations required, and these tables were then used for look-up by 
the converter. They would be refreshed every couple of years.
