Hi;

Just double checking that I have things in some date formulae written
correctly.

OOo starts dating at 30/12/1899 shows as Dec 29, 1899 when MMM DD, YYYY
formatting is applied.  It appears to lose a day.  The 30/12/1899 date
none-the-less is the date that is used for internal date arithmetic, is
it not?

In Help the WEEKS() Function is defined as follows:

WEEKS(Start date, End date, Type)
Calculates the difference in weeks between two dates.
Start date: First date
End date: Second date
Type: Calculates the type of difference. The possible values are 0
(interval) and 1 (in numbers of weeks).
 
If the Start date is set to 30/12/1899 and End date is today, WEEKS()
returns 5562 weeks for Type value 0 and 5563 for Type value 1.

Help is not clear, on the difference between interval type (0) and 'in
number of weeks' type (1).  What I really want to do is count the number
of Mondays since the 30/12/1899 start date.  I think this means I want
to use Type 2 but I would like to have this assumption confirmed, if
someone could take the time to help.
