Hi there

Is there any way to retrieve Day Of Week value  in COBOL/400?
I don't use ILE COBOL and when I try the statement for ILE COBOL, sure it
gives syntax error written in below.
How can I get this value in my program?


Message   . . . . :   ANS COBOL reserved word DAY-OF-WEEK will be accepted
as a
  nonreserved word.

Cause . . . . . :   DAY-OF-WEEK is a reserved word in the 1985 ANSI COBOL
  standard (revised 1989), but it is not a COBOL/400* reserved word.

Recovery  . . . :   Do not use ANS (American National Standard) COBOL
reserved
  words that are not COBOL/400 reserved words.





In ILE Cobol you can:

77 w-giorno        pic  9(1) value zero.

ACCEPT w-giorno from DAY-OF-WEEK
display " today is " w-giorno
        ".th day of the week".

Good luck.
