When I do
Dim s As String = (myDTFI.GetMonthName(i))
how do I know if the month name is correct because in a leap
year it's different ?

Why is the month name different in a leap year?

Scott,
Because the Hebrew calendar has a Leap month in addition to a Leap day.
Hence a Leap Year has an extra month & day, where as in a Gregorian calendar
(US) a Leap Year only has a Leap Day (Feb 29th).
As far as I can tell the problem is this year is NOT a leap year in the
Hebrew Calendar, at least System.Globalization.
HebrewCalendar
does not think
it is. I don't know enough about the Hebrew Calendar to know if this year is
or not.
Hope this helps
Jay

Maybe because that is the culture/language "he-IL"
:-)
