As I stated before, my workaround is to use the OneNote IE2OneNote plugin :)

It really works wonders!

Subject: [aus-dotnet] OT - IE pagesave failures


Curiosity about 1752 and the change to the Gregorian calendar led me to link
to the page 
http://www.ancestry.com/learn/library/article.aspx?article=3358 
and I decided to save it to disk - but IE6 won't play

I've asked this on MS newsgroups (I hope not here; if so, sorry folks) and
don't get a wholly convincing answer. The work-around I use when I really
want" a page is to print as a PDF file. But that's not always great, because
some webpages are made for screens at 1400px width and can't print to paper
(hence, a PDF default A4 pagesize slices off the right margin).

Any thoughts?

   Your info is correct for England.  In Russia, IIRC, the days were removed
in 1917.

By the way, do people know why SQL Server uses 1753?

About 8 years ago I was doing some SCO System admin, when I stumbled across
some interesting information reading through the "MAN" command (online
manual) pages, looking for information about date-related commands. It's
interesting to note that in September 1752, 11 days were subtracted from
that month in Gregorian calendar (the one used by western society today).
Interestingly SCO Unix displayed a calendar for that month - with exactly 11
days missing.

Curious about the details of the calendar change, do a search for words
"gregorian","1752" and "semptember". eg...
http://www.ancestry.com/learn/library/article.aspx?article=3358

.Net uses the same method as SQL for controls DateTimePicker and
MonthCalendar - you cant display it because of a curious mindate. Not much
of a problem for most applications.

A date always has a value.
Date dt = new Date() = 00:00:00.0000000, January 1, 0001
Your problem is that this is probably less than the allowed value for your
datatype.
eg SQL Server datetime type has a min value of  January 1, 1753 .

Usually it's best to insert a null for unassigned dates.
ie. if ( dt > DateTime.MinValue)
        set param here...

assignment the value is #12:00:00 AM#

if i use isdate..it returns TRUE but this will not submit to SQL...How do i
