That worked beautifully (once I noticed that May has 31 days instead of 30 twice.)

Nick Footnotes: [fn:1] The heuristic counts empty cells as numbers if the non-empty row above it is a number, so for the first column for example, there are 21 cells and 11 of them are numbers. Interesting, but it sounds to me like org is trying to be too smart for its own good here, making inferences based on the contents of the cells. I'll stick with the 'l' notation, which seems more reliable. Thank you! -pd -- Peter Davis The Tech Curmudgeon www.techcurmudgeon.com
[O] Printable calendar?
I'm trying to make a printable calendar of my bike commuting trips during the month of May. I don't need any fancy calendar functions, so I figured a simple table would do it. I created the ord file whose contents are below, but when I export to HTML, there are some quirks ... 1) Some of the dates are right aligned within the cells, and others left. 2) I'd like to have full borders on the table Also, is there a better way to do this? I know emacs has calendar tools, and org has diary and agenda tools, but they seemed like overkill for trying to get a simple calendar page printed.
