VB Date Computation

Given a year, a month, week of month and day of week, how can I figure out the exact date?

eg: Year = 2003
Month = December
Week Of Month = 4
Day Of Week = 5 (Thursday)

How do I figure out that the date is 25 Dec 2003 in VB 6.0?

You can do some pretty neat stuff using the dateAdd function. This should do the trick for what you need (there is a few problems with this code, for instance if you say month 11, week 1, day 1, it will give you a date in month 10 - try it, and you'll see what I mean)
Code:
iYear = 2003
iMonth = 11
  'Change the month to an integer. You can use a switch
  'statement for this.
iWeekOfMonth = 2
iDayOfWeek = 2

dtDate = iYear & "/" & iMonth & "/01"
  'Get the date of the first day of the month
dtDate = DateAdd("ww", iWeekOfMonth - 1, dtDate)
  'add the number of weeks to the date
iNumberMoreDays = iDayOfWeek - Weekday(dtDate)
  'Calculate the number of days that should be added
dtDate = DateAdd("d", iNumberMoreDays, dtDate)
  'Add the number of days
MsgBox (dtDate)

Hope this helps.
