A little more info.. I found that if I enclose the whole thing in a try
{}catch{}, then it seems to work, in spite of the exception.

I'm still not very comfortable using this with financial data, so any help
or insight about the exception would be appreciated :-)


  // returns 1=Sunday ... 7 = Saturday
  static public int dayOfWeek (long longDate) {
    int dayOfWeek = 0;
    try {
      GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar((int)(longDate/10000),
(int)((longDate/100)%100)-1, (int)(longDate%100));
      dayOfWeek = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);         // 2=Monday
      }
    catch (Exception e) {}

    return(dayOfWeek);
  }
