    Here in the USA, Thanksgiving Day is the 4th Thursday in November. Is there a way to set up a repeating Special Day for this, so you don't have create a special day for every year?

    Thank You,
    -Duke

    At the moment, the software doesn't support creating a single Special Day which works for the same date, every year. When you create the Special Days, you can click on the "more" button, which will allow the creation of a Special Day on the same date for many years in advance.

    When you have added all of your local holidays, save the Special Days as a template for use in future projects.

    Thanks Darren.

    Might be something worth looking into for the future (Especially for the commercial applications here). Not sure about Australia, but the USA has several of these types of national holidays;

    Martin Luther King Day [3rd Monday in Jan]
    Presidents Day/Washington's Birthday (observed) [3rd Monday in Feb]
    Memorial Day (observed) [last Monday in May]
    Labor Day [1st Monday in Sept]
    Columbus Day (observed) [2nd Monday in Oct]
    Thanksgiving Day [4th Thursday in Nov]

    Hi Chris.

    Luckily those who don't work at a bank or a school or a post office still get to work on many of them. :)
