OK, let us start over.
We can spend all day commiserating about what a rip-off that (probably) was, but to get you any (constructive!) help on you need to describe your system better. Start with a high-level description of your system: what do you need the system for? What is its purpose? What are the "surroundings" (other systems depending on what the system does, etc.) like?
Maybe we can work out a suggestion on what you should do but we have to understand the problem first.
I hope this helps.

NAME
holidays - prime/nonprime table for the accounting system
SYNOPSIS
/etc/acct/holidays
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/acct/holidays file describes which hours are considered prime time and which days are holidays. Holidays and weekends are con-
sidered non-prime time hours. /etc/acct/holidays is used by the accounting system.
All lines beginning with an "*" are comments.
The /etc/acct/holidays file consists of two sections. The first non-comment line defines the current year and the start time of prime and
non-prime time hours, in the form:
current_year prime_start non_prime_start
The remaining non-comment lines define the holidays in the form:
month/day company_holiday
Of these two fields, only the month/day is actually used by the accounting system programs.
The /etc/acct/holidays file must be updated each year.
