Granted, in the short term I'm willing to have something that only works for the Gregorian Calendar. Lunar based calendar holidays (like Jewish/Muslim/Chinese) can wait, as can other historical (Mayan/etc.)
Part of the problem is HAVING the three years of calendar to copy the dates from. The other part is working with dates outside the range of what's been manually entered. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jesse Parker Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 7:47 AM To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: Holiday Calculator I've seen some applications that use a "holiday file" so that people can enter their own holidays. You can easily cook them up a 3 year file. A lot of holidays are different around the world and there are a lot of holidays all tolled. On Thu, 12 Dec 2002, Anthony M.
