Something like this?
dDate = ctod('2/28/'+<year as a string>) + 1
if month(dDate) = 2
' leap year
Else
' not leap year
Endif

Subject: Testing for leap year?
How do you test to see if it's a leap year? The first thing that comes
to my mind is checking to see if DATE(nCurrentYearVariable,2,29) throws
an error or not. e.g.
dDate = DATE(nCurrentYearVariable,2,29)
lLeapYear = not empty(dDate)
Better ideas?
