Re: E/L coding problem

["prs" <psmeding@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think this will work:

 if dayofweek(date) = wkday and intportion((dayofmonth(date)-1)/7)=N-1 then
begin  { got target date }

N is the Nth occurance you're looking for and WKDAY is the week day you're
loooking for.
So, for example if WKDAY=2 and N=3 it should find the third Tuesday of the
month

Hope this helps
