Boy, Matt, I'd love to see the code that processes all the options in that drop-down...got any of it handy? I was trying to go down this road once before with my calendars, but found the code (not CF code...don't remember what it was) that handles the calculations to be too demanding to take time to figure out. Thankfully, I haven't had any clients that demanded that much functionality...yet... Maybe some of you code guru's could post one piece of code at a time...like "Here's the code that calculates every 3rd Monday of the month..." Kind of like a short-installment tutorial...
