Not sure if this is the best way to handle it, but I would think you could create a [loop] context that would use as the "from" the numerical date of the first Monday you wanted to start with, like [math]{01/07/2008}[/math] and [math]{12/29/2008}[/math] as the "to" value. 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 Consulting 23 Marco Polo Court Franklin Park, NJ 08823-1703 Voice: 609-359-0103 http://altimac.com ************************ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
