Changing Calendars

Mike
I trust this is all you need to upload your draft plugin.

This is a follow on from FHU Mailings dialogue: Changing Calendars.

The attached Plugin should adjust any Julian date between 1 Jan and 24 Mar prior to 1753 by adding 1 to the year and changing to Gregorian.

All originally Julian dates are listed in a concluding Result Set with old and new date values.

Note that any that do not meet the above criteria will remain as Julian dates.

Simply click the attached file to install the Plugin.

Remember that if you do not like the date changes then use Edit > Undo Plugin Updates.

Works a treat, Mike. Thank you. What is more, by double clicking on any value in the New Date field brings up the appropriate Property Box, so if I wanted to know why I entered a date as Julian when, for example, I knew only the year, the answer is there. Thanks again.
George
