As has been said before, the unix "cal" command works fine. I've generated
the calanders for 2050 through 2060 with it, and it's a 17k text file if you
(or anyone else) want(s) it.

Missed the first message in this, but I'd like to add that if you have
something like a calandar program for Windows (I have an old copy of the
Far Side Calandar, too, which works just as well), you can just go
forward to the year you want, and print out a full year calandar...

Thanks, I'll see if I can get my provider's system to generate those
calenders for me... If it fails, I'll fall back on your offer :)

You might want to make sure it's millennium compliant too, although I for
the life of me don't know how...

Just check Feb 29th, 2056. It should fall on a Tuesday.
