Dear Rachel,

Unfortunately , working over the overlap issues may not be an easy one. The
big question is which month do you consider the data for if the week starts
within the previous month or the one that ends in another month,

Probably the month with many days takes up the data BUT remember like
Prosper said, it will be an approximation and not an exact match of data.

A More realistic data would be accurate as you go higher in the period
hierarchy e..g. quarterly, ...

Regards
