  • 1.  Creating an extended calendar to run on a Monday after the first Sunday.

    Posted Jan 15, 2020 11:30 AM
    I'm trying to create an extended calendar that will run on the first two Sundays of the month and on the Monday after the first Sunday.  So it will run Sunday, Monday and again next Sunday.  I've tried Sun#01 | Mon#01 | Sun#02 but that doesn't work when Monday is the first day of the month like in June 2020.  I've also tried to use WEKR7X## but that doesn't work like I thought it would.

    That will be a complex algorithm and doing what you did will not be all .. you will need to be fancier than that

    Work out on a piece of paper all the ways to get to your goal. The fact you want the Sunday and the Monday then a Sunday is going to be tricky..

    Sounds like you need and & in there .. This is all part of our jobs... think it through ��

     

    Good luck

    Hi Leroy,

    As Steve points out, we need to do a little more work on the Monday part.  I took a quick stab at it and came up with the following.
    Please let me know if it meets your needs.

    Sun#01 | Sun#02 | ((Mon#01 ! MNTHD#1 )| (Mon#2 & MNTHD#8) )

    The sunday portion is straight forward, but for the monday as you pointed out, if it's the first day of the month we need to exclude it and include the 8th day of the month in it's place.

    Regards,
    Mike

    ​Hi Mike,
      Yes, that will work.  However, where is that !  documnet as a not?  Is this (Mon#01 ! MNTHD#1) saying the first Monday but not if it's the first day of the month?  Is there a cheat sheet of tricks as this wold've been helpful but I never knew about it?

    Thanks again!
