JavaScout - I look forward to trying it - keeping my fingers crossed.

Sorry JavaScout - If I do this the it gives today a Wednesday 9th April (not Saturday). I still have the problem with the first day of the month not following on from the last day of the previous month - should there be a line somewhere saying "first day of month = last day of previous month + 1" or something along those lines.

I've been away a week and I can't believe how much has been written - thank you all. JavaScout - I've tried your fix. The week now starts on a Monday. By changing the dateMonthText - script line 133 to ulFirstDay = DatePart("w", pFirstDay, 6) I've got the right date displaying under the right day of the week - but my next month still starts a day too early! i.e. 30th April is a Saturday but so is 1st May! Martin's calendar works well <img src=

Lilstarfish & JavaScout - thank you both for all the time effort and advice you've put in. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Desktop X which downloaded me a fresh copy of the calendar - even on the 'new' copy the following month starts 2 days early even before I've made any changes so I guess it might be something to do with UK windows config. I've tried trailing through the script and experimented with my best guesses but nothing seems to help

Many thanks to both of you - I have done as instructed and all looks good at first sight - UNFORTUNATELY - the months following and preceeding do not follow on correctly i.e. last day of May is THURSDAY 31st (which is correct) but April seems to then start on WEDNESDAY 1st! Do both of yours do this or is it just a problem at my end?

Many thanks for the advice but how the hell to I get at the dateMonthText script I need to edit. I've tried everything I can think of - I've found a script file with the line you mention (but no 136) - every time I change it and save, it eventually reverts back to previous when I try to use the widget again. 1.5 hrs spent so far - please help.

The calendar appears to be programmed incorrectly - Monday 28th March (today) is definitely not a Saturday as the calendar shows - I think the wrong year has been put in - don't know how else to report the problem.
