I'm not sure if this question should be posted in here or in the Voice mail section. But here goes when setting up a holiday mailbox box ( hoilday.txt) in Stratagy is the dates entered in the day, month or month day order. Thanks for your help.

Try this.....Right out of the Stratagy I&M Page 10-12

* To create the DOS text file
You can use this method to update HOLIDAYS.TXT without shutting down the system.
1. On another PC, use DOS Edit to create the DOS text file HOLIDAYS.TXT. Enter the holidays
for the year (or the next ten years if you prefer) in the following format: mmddyyyy. One date
per line. For example:
02201998
04141998
05291998
07041998
09041998
11241998
12251998
01011999
2. Save as A:\HOLIDAYS.TXT
This copies the file HOLIDAYS.TXT to the floppy disk in floppy-disk drive A:. This example
assumes that the non-Stratagy PC’s floppy-disk drive is drive A:.
3. Insert the floppy disk into the Stratagy system’s floppy-disk drive.
4. From the Main Menu, press Alt+F to select the Filecopy option.
5. From the Copy a File screen, type A:\HOLIDAYS.TXT in the Copy From: field and press
Enter. This assumes that the Stratagy system’s floppy-disk drive is drive A:.
6. In the Copy To: field, type HOLIDAYS.TXT and press Enter. The file copies to the Stratagy
system’s hard drive (drive C: ).
7. Remove the floppy disk from the Stratagy system’s floppy-disk drive.

One more thing... Be sure you know what directory that you are placing your files in. When using the "?" token to determine if the holiday greeting should be played you have to tell it to look in the proper directory. If you have other questions I can walk you through it over the phone. drop me an email and I'll send you my phone number.
