WHY? (date dues) Spectrum 5

[BR <l0x6@YAHOO.COM>]

Hi, all--
Am having great difficulty and am not sure why:
We wanted to check out books to students to keep
during this winter vacation, so we changed patron
type date due to correspond with the next time
each class would be visiting the library. This
did not yield consistent due dates when we
checked out materials. Even when the same patron
checked out two items at the same time, sometimes
the date dues were not the same! So next I
changed the material types to allow for two week
checkout. Still -- due dates did not correspond
among items circulated. Items checked out today
showed a due date of Jan 2nd. Next we accessed
calendar setup and set January 2nd as "closed"
(even tho we're not) and the program still
insisted on returning the date due for items
checked out today as Jan 2nd. There MUST be a
way! What am I doing wrong? Please Help!?
TIA
