Defining Special Day Classes

You can define Special Day Classes by creating a named class and then associating a list of date-expressions with it. Special Day Classes are governed by the following rules:

• Special Day Class names are restricted to 40 characters in length
• Class names cannot begin with a number
• They can contain only alphanumeric characters and the underscore character (_)
• The list of date-expressions can consist of one or more absolute date specifications
• You can specify the list of date-expressions associated with a Special Day Class at the time the Special Day Class is created, or add to it later
• You can modify the contents of a Special Day Class after its creation by inserting and removing elements
