Yeah, yeah, yeah :) I caught this a little bit after I posted it, and replied to myself with the fix.
I like yours better, though. <g>

Yep - doesn't work for any date where the next month doesn't have that date. Like Jan 29-31 (in non-leap years), October 31, etc.

BTW, that gets the last day of the month, not the number of days.

lnDaysInMonth = DAY(GOMONTH(ldDate-Day(ldDate)+1,1)-1)

gets # of days.
Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
