How often does the month of February (not to mention Sept, April, June, and Nov) have 31 days? You are getting March, since 29/02/2001 is actually 01/03/2001.This code is never going to work like this. It is also not clear to me why you are using today's date at all. Are you trying to look at sales to the current day in each month? If you want total sales per month, there is unfortunately no way in WebCat to get the last day of the month, but there is a way to get the first day of the next and subtract 1. Try something like this:[loop start=0&end=[math][txtmonths]-1[/math]][text]FirstDay=01/[format Days_To_Date %m/%Y][math date]{01/[index]/0000}[/Math][/format][/text][text]LastDay=01/[format Days_To_Date %m/%Y][math date]{01/[index]+1/0000}-{01/00/0000}[/Math][/format][/text]and use those variables in your rn search (not tested).HTHJohn-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
