Hi,

I've had the same problem as you!

here's part of the problem...

November, and part of October :)

The right way to do it.  However, there's no need to select the whole
month.  From what I can see, the month selection you have in the print
job dialog, is the month of the first day selected.  So if you have
selected from "31 Oct - 11 Dec 2005", then the print job will show
October.

The workaround is simple.  Select any day in November (doesn't matter if
you get the "day" view); then select file -> print.  Now you will notice
that you can choose to print the whole of November.

Note: You have to select a day in November.  You can't select an event
in November, or the day won't necessarily be selected!

It's a peculiarity that could probably work a bit better, but you should
be able to get around it.

HTH,
