Step 9: Press Select/Save
From the custom holiday editor screen, the date of the holiday can be
entered. As can be seen in the image above, there are two date
fields. This allows a range of dates to be entered, such as the dates
for summer vacation at a school. In addition to the dates, a day of
the week field is available for including and excluding days. This is
only useful if a date range is entered. A day is included if the initial
for the day is upper case, if it is lower case, it is excluded. An
example of its usage would be Memorial Day. Memorial Day is
defined as the last Monday of the month of May. To set this up, you
would select the date range of 5/25 - 5/31, the last full week. Then
select only Monday from the day of the week field

of the date is not used. For example, if you wanted something
special to happen on the 15
th
of each month, you would enter the
dates as “an/15/an”.
