How do I get the names of the months ?

[C.K]

I need to have an end result of

a(1)="january"
a(2)="febuary"
etc
etc
etc
a(12)="december"

It just occured to me that there might be en elegant way of
obtaining the names of the months from the datetime object
or the gregoriancalendar object, any ideas?

Take a look at the 'MonthName' function.

Take a look at the 'MonthName' function.

or you could use the DateTimeFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.GetMonthName function -
this returns culture specific strings.

hope that helps..
