Display actual name of weekday rather than number of day

johnsogj

Hello, I've found documentation on how to find the day of the week. However, I cant seem to find out how to display the actual NAME of the weekday rather than the number. For example, all documentation shows how to display "1" instead of "Monday". I've specifically looked at DATE2DWY.

Thanks

WeekDay is type TEXT

WeekDay := FORMAT(WORKDATE,0,'<Weekday Text>');

This code will take the WORKDATE and tell you the day of the week it is..
Monday, Tuesday, etc...

Now just add a textbox to a report or form and use Weekday as it's sourceexp!

Use this basic technique and adjust it to fit your needs.

If it's some date you are deciding on then you would CHANGE WORKDATE (in this example) to Your Inputted Date. (type Date Field)

Right!
Johnsogj got a solution for his Problem in 18 minutes. But he gave no answer if this was usefull for his job, he did not set the thread solved. That is not the way a forum should be used.
