Re: Day of the Week

First, subtract the days between a known day and the target date
Then remove the whole weeks and save the remainder.
Finally, the remainder is the offset number of days from your known date.
 
SubDur 20030225 from 20040101 
Divide the answer by 7, save the remainder. 
The remainder is the offset from Tuesday (your known date)
