There are 4 such buttons. 3 right under the first. To subtract vacation, fmla, and floater hours. I did figure it out though and have went on to create the final 3. Sometime today I will reup the file for you to look at and critique. As for the reasons, from a code stand point, and for the calendar, they are fine, but to generic to be entered into the reason box. If I call in sick tomorrow, they want to be able to type in there he called in sick. Not just that I was absent on that day. If that makes sense. But I did figure that out too. I just had to remove the line of code that had it going there and add another txtbox and have that go there. Its perfect.

Thank you so very much.
