Hi. I didn't misinterpret the %. I understand how it works. :-) If you have ((Month - StartMonth) * 100 + (Day - StartDay) + 1300) % 1300 Then... Say Month = 1 (Jan) and StartMonth = 1 (Jan) and Day = 10 and StartDay = 10. You have ((1 - 1) * 100 + (10 - 10) + 1300) % 1300 (0 * 100 + 0 + 1300) % 1300 (0 + 0 + 1300) % 1300 1300 % 1300 = 0 Now we increment the Month. ((2 - 1) * 100 + (10 - 10) + 1300) % 1300 (1 * 100 + 0 + 1300) % 1300 (100 + 1300) % 1300 1400 % 1300 = .0769231 That's the remainder value of a 1400 / 1300 division. That remainder is a fractional value below 1 as I had stated. So what am I missing? Thanks.
