The date datetype is extremely flexible and does most of the work needed
for
making a calendar.
**The only gotcha is the month subtraction bug.**
Month Addition
date: now
date/month: date/month + 24
probe date
26-Oct-2002/1:53:07+10:00
Month Subtraction returns an incorrect date if the result would be a date
earlier than January. :-(
date: now
date/month: date/month - 24
probe date
26-Feb-23844/1:53:55+10:00
(submitted to feedback)
Subtraction via day does not have that problem
date: now
date/day: date/day - 365
probe date
27-Oct-1999/2:04:31+10:00
To get first day of the month
date: now
date/day: 1
probe date
1-Oct-2000/2:00:17+10:00
probe date/weekday
7
To get the last day of the month
date: now
date/month: date/month + 1
date/day: 1
date/day: date/day - 1
probe date
31-Oct-2000/2:06:32+10:00
probe date/weekday
2
Hope this helps
Cheers,
Allen K
