It is not practical in XSLT 1.0. I would probably attempt it anyway, though. For example, if you just want the number of days in a given month (1-12), it would be something like this... <xsl:variable name="month" select="6"/> <xsl:variable name="days" select="number(substring('312831303130313130313031',$month * 2 - 1,2))"/> (not accounting for leap years) - Mike ____________________________________________________________________ Mike J.
