Re: Need to know Day of any Date

Hi Amir,

 

an other way to determine the day of the week of any date is to use SQL
Scalar functions.

DayOfWeek(Date) returns 1 for Sunday and 7 for Saturday

DayOfWeek_Iso(Date) returns 1 for Monday and 7 for Saturday

 

Here an example:

D DateIso         S               D   DatFmt(*Iso) inz(D'2004-05-03')

D DayWeek         S              1P 0

 

C/Exec SQL  Set :DayWeek = DayOfWeek(:DateIso)

C/End-Exec

 

C     DateIso       dsply 

 

C/Exec SQL  Set :DayWeek = DayOfWeek_Iso(:DateIso)

C/End-Exec 

 

C     DateIso       dsply 

C                   Eval      *inLR = *On
