cut & paste info found on the net:

Microsoft Outlook has a built-in feature to add holidays from different countries and religions to your default Calendar folder. You can add holidays to your Calendar folder by following these steps:

1. Choose Tools | Options, then click Calendar Options.
2. On the Calendar Options dialog box, click Add Holidays.
3. In the Add Holidays to Calendar dialog box, check the countries or religions whose holidays you want to add, then click OK.

..
and finally .. sync your pda with your outlook. If you don't have outlook on your PC, though luck really. There is a software which run on pocketpc called Megasoft2000 PocketHolidays, but it costly.. considering that Outlook has it for free.

Thanks for that information. I had already discovered what you said but had not realised that the holidays I had in Outlook were out of date. I have now downloaded an update for UK holidays and have them showing on my PPC and in Outlook. Thanks again.
