That last message needs ONE change and since I can't change or delete it I have to do it in this message. The line "year = year - 1900" should read "year = year - 1900 : WHILE year > 28 : year = year - 28: WEND" And the following line should be MOD 29 (not MOD 28). As it is it will work for all years except 1928, 1956, 1984, 1984+28, ... Apologies to All, Bill C. --- Maximus 2.00 * Origin: Durham Systems (ONLINE!) (1:229/110)
