Financial Week numbers
 

I am trying to code a British Financial Week Number Function. ie. an
April to March rotation. The Jan to December is quite common but I can
find no reference to the Fiscal week numbers.
Also is it my imagination or has this group had a drastic reduction
of past history. I seldom find any information I search for now days?
Without wanting to upset anyone, it has almost become a "chocolate
saucepan".

One question first: April 6th is the beginning of the UK financial tax
year. In 2007, the 6th fell on a Friday. On what date did week *::2::*
of the financial year *begin*?

try this

Function WeekNumber(thisdate As Date) As Long
Dim startdate As Date
startdate = DateSerial(Year(thisdate), 4, 4)
If startdate = thisdate Then
startdate = DateSerial(Year(thisdate) - 1, 4, 4)
End If

WeekNumber = Int((thisdate - startdate - 1) / 7) + 1

End Function

So if Monday 16th April 2007 is the beginning of week 2, then
Monday 9th April is the beginning of week 1, so what is the week number
of Friday the 6th, and of Saturday the 7th?
