RE: Week of the month

Yep. Simple. Additional code needed to handle the case where the data area is
missing. And, provide an explanation as to why a report was not run. People
go on vacation and/or forget to pass on information about when a report is run
- triggering a call to look for a "missing" report.

Quoting Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

create a *LGL data area. If = 0, run job and change to 1, if equal 1,
change to 0 and do not run. Run your job weekly and let the data area
control how far it goes.

User wants report on specific day of the week. Currently every Tuesday,
now wants alternate Tuesdays. But will settle for 2 and 4th Tuesday.
Program looks at accounts for a larger period than a week. Weekly is
overkill. But, this is a changed requirement from the initial weekly
run.
