Hi John,
You've recieved my postings on this issue VERY quickly, and in faster 
succession than I ever expected.

That was exactly my intension, John. I hope to find out the correct rules for 
DST-correction for the European continent too, so I can convert those to a 
similar routine.

I'm glad you like it so much, you even promoted it to Tony. Especially, since 
your own routine was so elegant IMO. Your routine was also easier to 
understand, because of the adequate REMarks and ECHO's. I would have a hard 
time explaining how *my* routine works, and why... even in my home language.
Keep it up,
