Re: Determining "Business Days" (i.e. No Saturday/Sunday)

Hi Chuck,

To determine what day of the week the current system date is, check out the
system value QDAYOFWEEK.

If you need this for a different date, then you need to calculate the
number of days difference, (or number of weeks and remainder number of
days) and use that and the current day of week to determine the day of week
for the different date.

Sorry I don't have a code sample handy.

HTH,

Kathleen Kostuck
