Check the archives, there are some good examples there - basically in ILE
rpg this is
very easy, without going into detail, pick a date that you know which day
of
the week it is,
do a subdur with the current date to get the days differance(all date
formatted fields of
course) work out that number to a 1-7 digit assigning ie:1=Sunday, 2=Monday
and you have it.

Subject: Can I get the Day of the week?
One our projects here prints a letter and we need to be able to print the
day of the week of a given date.  I know that the system value QDAYOFWEEK
tells me what the day of the week is for today, but how can I find out the
day of the week for a given date?
BTW, the letter program is written in RPG - (just to confirm that it
belongs
on the RPG400-L list :).
TIA,
