Week numbers bug in Entourage 2004

There's a bug in Entourage 2004 for Mac; enough said! If you rely on week numbers, as I do for work, the week numbers are off for 2005; Entourage is always 1 week behind, if your week starts on a Sunday as it does in the US. For example, this should be Week 45 of 2005; however, Entourage shows it as Week 44.

There is a workaround for this bug for 2005: change your 'First day of week' to 'Monday', rather than the default of Sunday. This can be found in Entourage's Preferences, under General Preferences: Calendar. See below:


This, however, is only a temporary fix. When January 1st, 2006, rolls around, you'll have to figure out which day to start your week on again for correct week numbers (I'm betting on Sunday this time 'round).
