determine holiday dates such as Easter 2

[rewdee]

Does anyone have a function or module to determine holidays that are not fixed dates such as Easter and Good Friday.

Thanks,
Rewdee

Hmmmmmmmm,

Interesting. The 'biblebobble' site actually includes a complete function which (after some small revision) appears to work, although it is somewhat cumbersome (the code). You do need to know enough to replace their 'remainder' function, and (obviously?) remove the "(?)" in the declaration.

The 'kencolloins' site offers some additional Holy Holidays, but leave the issue of an actual procedure to the reader.

Exploring hte 'biblebobble' site reveals several other functions (procedures) which might be useful to some, however it appears that most would require at leqst some minor modification.

I had a look at the "bobble" site and stole the easter code right away ;-).
I then realized that I had been a little too quick ....
so back to the "bobble" and there it waz the "remainder" function :-D
Some small detail with the "CDate" was quickly overcome.
Excelent site!
