No because my package had nothing else than set/get the different components of Date and a constructor.

I have now added "+" (L: Date, R : Positive) return Date

which should work the way I think it should. Perhaps . First need to test if the result is correct. Another day.

Hm none. Just would need the possibility to use it in a loop for the 'Range. But hey I am a noob so I quite often asks silly questions :)
