Does anybody know how to work around MCs inability to calculate dateTime = before 1970 and after 2037??? Yeah what you need to do (what I did) is come up with routines to dd/mm/ and time to julian date and then write a few routines to convert from julian date back to a string, to and from dateitems, and calculate the day of week from julian date.

Regards, Ernst Use the centuryCutOff function. /H Hi, as I understand in the manual the centuryCutOff function is just for deciding what century if you use a 2-digit year... e.g. try to get the weekday of a day 50 years and 10 days in the future: get the date convert it to dateitems add 50 to item 1 of it add 10 to item 3 of it convert it to dateitems invalid date it doesn´t concern the centuryCutOff Regards, Ernst ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard

Tuviah Sorry, but this sounds a little bit too complicated... why does MCs convert to dateitems not work outside this ranges?? e.g. just to get the proper weekday of a day 50 years plus 10 days in future should work with it get the date convert it to dateitems add 50 to item 1 of it add 10 to item 3 of it convert it to dateitems and as usual the last item should be the weekday but MC returns invalid date it must be a bug!!
