Hi,
Can you tell me if Date:Calc is the best way for calcuating dates? �I would like to 
pass specific dates to analog to do log file analysis on the dates. �

Here are my scripts:
1)Previous Month
#!/usr/bin/perl

use Date::Calc qw( Today Days_in_Month Date_to_Text); 

 �($year,$month) = Today();

#calculating previous month

 �if ($month == 1)
 �{
 � � � �$previous_mon = "12";
 � � � �$year = $year - 1;
 � � � �$days=Days_in_Month($year,$previous_mon);
 � � � �$begin_date = "01";
 � � � �$end_date = $days;
 �print "Previous Month's Dates were From $year $previous_mon$begin_date To $year 
$previous_mon$end_date.\n" 
 �}
 �else
 �{
 � � �if ($month > 1)
 � � �{
 � � � � �$previous_mon = $month - 1;
 � � � � �$days=Days_in_Month($year,$previous_mon);
 � � � � �$begin_date = "01";
 � � � � �$end_date = $days;
 �print "Previous Month's Dates were From $year $previous_mon$begin_date To $year 
$previous_mon$end_date.\n" 
 � � �}
 � } �

2)Previous Week
#!/usr/bin/perl

use Date::Calc qw( Today Day_of_Week Add_Delta_Days
 � � � � � � � � � � Day_of_Week_to_Text Date_to_Text );

 �$saturday_dow = 6; # 6 = Saturday
 �$sunday_dow = 7; # 7 = Sunday
 �@today = Today();
 �$current_dow = Day_of_Week(@today);

#calculating saturday's date of previous week

 �if ($saturday_dow == $current_dow)
 �{
 � � �@prev = Add_Delta_Days(@today,-7);
 �}
 �else
 �{
 � � �if ($saturday_dow > $current_dow)
 � � �{
 � � � � �@next = Add_Delta_Days(@today,
 � � � � � � � � � �$saturday_dow - $current_dow);
 � � � � �@prev = Add_Delta_Days(@next,-7);
 � � �}

 � � �else 
 � � �{
 � � � � �@prev = Add_Delta_Days(@today,
 � � � � � � � � � �$saturday_dow - $current_dow);
 � � � � �@next = Add_Delta_Days(@prev,+7);
 � � �}
 � } �
 �$dow = Day_of_Week_to_Text($saturday_dow);
 �print "Today is: � � �", ' ' x length($dow),
 � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � Date_to_Text(@today), "\n";

@previoussaturday=@prev;


#calculating sunday's date of previous week
#sunday is 7, which is larger than any other weekday 1-7

 �if ($sunday_dow == $current_dow)
 �{
 � � �@prev = Add_Delta_Days(@today,-14);
 �}
 �else
 �{
 � � �if ($sunday_dow > $current_dow)
 � � �{
 � � � � �@next = Add_Delta_Days(@today,
 � � � � � � � � � �$sunday_dow - $current_dow);
 � � � � �@prev = Add_Delta_Days(@next,-14);
 � � �}
 �}
 �$dow2 = Day_of_Week_to_Text($sunday_dow);
 �@previoussunday=@prev; 

 �print "Previous Weeks Dates were From @previoussunday To @previoussaturday.\n"
