Then just increment by 7 to get the date numerically for each week and convert it like this:[format days_to_date %d/%m/%Y][index][/format]since the [index] values would then become the date of each Monday in 2008 in succession.As far as the week #, you'd just have to set a counter using a math value, start it at one and increment it by adding one for each iteration of the loop. Does that help? I'm a rank amateur at this stuff sometimes but I figured I'd chip in at a time when no one else might even be awake after the holiday festivities of yesterday (in the U.S., anyway).--Gil Poulsen, Mac Wirehead************************AltiM@c Consulting23 Marco Polo CourtFranklin Park, NJ 08823-1703Voice: 609-359-0103http://altimac.com************************
