That must Ts2K - I don't find it in Ts4.
You (whoever) can work it out. I did this a few years ago,
but I have no idea what study it was.
Each nth day of the week has a specific range of dates,
and will not overlap with the same day in another week.
I.e., only the 3rd Friday will appear in the range 15 to 20
(that's a guess - I don't remember). Just work out
all the combinations of a month's days !
