| One of the improvements to VL Live most commonly requested by users has been the addition of links to the Common Worship Weekday Lectionary authorized in 2005. We are pleased to announce that links to both this and to the Daily Eucharistic lectionary have now been made, so that the correct reference for each reading appears both in the Eucharist and in Daily Prayer. The present update provides these links through to the end of this year; later in the year another update will provide the correct links for 2011. Adding the full text of the readings will be the next stage, and this is also expected soon. So when you open Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer or Holy Communion and click on a weekday date all the correct readings will now appear. You will find that where a Festival has to be transferred to a weekday, from, for example, a Sunday in Advent, that transfer is made automatically. Where the transfer is optional, the readings and propers occur on the first date only, and if you want to transfer it to the second option you need to click on the red Festival title when you choose the date for the service. So for example the Blessed Virgin Mary, falls on a Sunday, August 15, so comes both there and on the Monday, as when it falls on a it may be transferred to the next available day. But, as it may also be transferred to September 8, it comes there as well, but if you want to transfer it you will need to click on it when you open the calendar. As always, we love to be told when we’ve got it wrong (or could do it better), and as this is an unusually complicated bit of the programme there maybe the odd anomaly that has got through our rigorous testing operation, so let us know! visualliturgy@hymnsam.co.uk

Thank you for this!  Looking forward to the links to texts in due course. One further wish for the wishlist is that in lectionary planner we could choose which weekdays we wanted. i know i can get all the weekdays and then delete the ones i don't want but if there is a quicker and easier way to do it I'd be very happy.
