Anyway to open the dates up a little? Access firmware? |

Set the date (25th, etc) and change the year until the correct day of the week shows. _________________ Just call me Zaphod (or Steve) --- I never should have started using numbers in a screen name but I just can't stop now. |

Thanks zaphod. Not the answer I was hoping for, but it is what I expected. I set the date to 2002. but leap year....... ah well can't have every thing. lol
Thanks again, |

Well, the last leap year with dates aligned with 2008 was 1952(!)
I suppose most calendars won't go back quite that far.
So after February 29, you'll have to change your year to 2003. _________________ Beginners - Read this thread first
