Ray,
Did you consider using DATE('B')//7 which will give you an answer of 0 thru
6, for Monday thru Sunday, respectively?

Subject: Rexx Question
I am performing the following instructions "
If year > "1900" Then year = year - 1
day = (year + (year / 4) + jday) // 7" in the hope of receiving an
answer ranging from 1 through 7.
When the year = 2004 and the julian day = 147 I get a result of 4.75. I
was expecting an answer of 4 which would indicate Wednesday.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Ray Baraniecki
