All you have to do is edit the calendar so the days are in the months slot and vice
versa! I've tried it, and IT WORKS.

Hm.. that doesn't work for me.  A few of the races will have the right
dates, but then some dates are skipped and others are repeated.  I assume
it's b/c the games can't handle a 'month' greater than 12.

    Your welcome, smarta$$. I do know that some people's purpose in
life is to sit in front of a computer and find fault in another
person's opinions and problems. FYI, I was actually just pointing
something out that had changed after the "patch" while not being
critical at all of the fact. It really has no effect to me whatsoever
as far as how the date reads other than the fact that I spent a couple
hours toying with my calendar file, ect... thinking I had caused the
problem at my end.

P.S./ Flame me and you get one back. Now be careful with that lighter
or you just might get burnt.
