junnie, You can calculate the day of the week ($wday) from Julday mod 7. Under win32 Perl 5, the perl script, athena.auth.gr , returns the day of the year rather than julday, but the $wday returned in localtime would do fine for fixing the WOW data. ------ $thisday = (Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat) [ (localtime)[6]]; print " today is a market day\n" unless $thisday =~ /Sat\|Sun/; ----- Bob ". I don't know that that Julian date function can indicate the days of the week?"

Junnie... Haven't heard from you in a while. I hope you're not giving up on WOW because of your Metastock file problem. I also hope I didn't overwhelm you with all my attempts to help. I didn't mean to, but I do tend to get carried away. Please don't go away! And, if I can do anything to help you with WOW, I'll be glad to. My learning curve with it was slow and painful. I'm terrible with manuals and I didn't find the WOW manual all that helpful when I did turn to it. I got lots of help from the old Prodigy boards when I first started out. That's why I'm willing to give some of that back, if I can. Say "hello".... eh? Ken
