===================================
Partial answer from Barbara:

As to the birthday problem:
THAT you should report directly to CESD either directly or in datebk
group as obviously THAT should not have happened. He may ask for your
database but be assured that he will take care of it.

Actually, even if you do send your database to CESD I'd still mention it
in the datebk group in case anyone else had same problem.
======================================

So, has anyone else seen "stuff" move to 12/31/2031 with the introduction of s7? Please go there and have a look. Same thing with DateBk6 repeats by 12 months by Day? Have things like Memorial Day (US) moved from the last Monday to the 26th (only an example depending on the day the repeat was created) of May? I think this was created by the roundtrip to Pimlical and the introduction of v s7.
