Josh,

With the following functions, you could probably get it to work:

select next_day(last_Day(sysdate),'WED') from dual

This (today) returns Wed, August 6th.

Greetings,

How can I set the interval in my dbms job to have it run on the first Wednesday of every month? Is this even possible? I have been trying to noodle it thru for a week to no avail.

tia,

Josh
