Anyone have any experience when creating a calendar how you prepopulate the months with the national holidays (ie. xmas, new years, independence day, etc.). Appreciate any insight you can offer.

No easy way. A merge is the way I do it every year.

David, present us with a tutorial and sample file please. I know you have
nothing better to do ;-)

Ouch, Brian -
That seems rather a low blow!
I wasn't suggesting a full-fledged tutorial or sample
files. You have to agree that the question of calendars
comes up often. This is a help forum, yes? ...Not an ask-a-
question get-your-knuckles-rapped forum, right?
°°°MS°Publisher°°° indicated that he has a way to work out
one constant calendar question with a merge.
How do you handle the merge when months can range from 28
days to 31 days?
What program does he use to set up the data file?
Any tips for setting up the data file?
What program does he merge into and do the final layout in?
Any tips for setting up that page?
(If he uses Access, Excel, SerifpagePlus and throws in
some VBA to make it all work just saying that would give
people a little more help than "you have nothing better to
do.")

Actually, I was being serious. I was supporting your request for a tutorial
on this. He has been using Publisher for many years (much more than I), and
he is very familiar with the merge process. I figured since he used the
merge process for this scenario, he would be best to produce a tutorial.

I shall be most happy to produce one Brian you can stick up on your website.
I shall do it over the Christmas break, which for me hopefully will extend
to the end of January.
They want me to work and I am desperately trying to avoid it in January.
Actually I should have been on holiday now, but got sucked in to doing a job
up until the 19th December. I must say, this particular job is a bit out of
the ordinary and I am enjoying it.

Ed, I received an Access database last week by e-mail and even though I have
the latest version installed on this puter, I trotted the file off to an
acquaintance by e-mail and said 'send me back all the data in CSV format'.
I loathe Access with a passion it is such a mongrel non-intuitive program
that must hold the record for the largest query files ever made. Access
sends a 1Mb query file across the network for a little query, while
Filemaker sends a few k's and does it ten times faster.
What takes you a week to develop in Access will take you a day in Filemaker
and function and look substantially better.

After all, Filemaker has been awarded the best database for Windows numerous
times and don't believe Access has ever got close.

Most interesting - the file is less than 1/50th of the size, and yet it is
only ten times faster...
Unles it sends it at a rate that is 10 times faster - in which case,
FileMaker has discovered an amazing technique of improving ethernet speeds.

Ed you old codger you are living in the dark ages of the annals of time.
Ethernet is finitio - gone - history
We use a thing called 'Telepathy' and has speeds in excess of IEEE1394
The hubs we use with Telepathy are just awesome - incredible - unbelievable.
We have at last found a useful purpose for the Irish!!!
