Weekly

Use this type when the calendar keyword should include:

Days occurring in weekly intervals

In keyword type "Weekly", you can first specify an interval. By default, 1 is used which means that every week is considered. Now specify the weeks during which the definition should be valid and then select the particular days of the week that should be included in the calendar keyword.

Note that the day calculation for the calendar keyword is made separately for each year. The effect is that there can be gaps at the turn of a year because a year includes 52 or 53 weeks.

Example: each second Saturday

Based on the settings specified in the calendar keyword, December 6 and 20 are highlighted. Without the turn of the year being considered, the next calculated Saturday would be January 3, 2009.
Due to the setting FIRST_WEEK_METHOD, the first week of 2009 starts on January 5. Therefore, the next calculated Saturday is January 10 (gap!). Below is a summary showing the calendar keywords which are close to the turn of the year:

December 6, December 20, (January 3 is omitted), January 10 etc.

Example

The calendar keyword includes the following days (e.g. as of 2006):

01.02.2006
08.02.2006
15.02.2006
22.02.2006
01.03.2006
08.03.2006

01.02.2007
08.02.2007
15.02.2007
22.02.2007
01.03.2007
08.03.2007

etc.
