Colleagues,
The code below shows me the numeric (Int) sequential number of the day (in this case - Friday):
Code:
Dim ldToday As Date = Today, ldLastWeek As Date = ldToday.AddDays(-7), lcDate As String = ldLastWeek.ToString(Format("d")), _
    lcFriday As String = "", ldFriday As Date = ldLastWeek
'MsgBox("Today: " & ldToday.ToString("d") & vbCrLf & "Last week: " & ldLastWeek.ToString("d") & vbCrLf & lcDate)
Do While ldFriday.DayOfWeek < DayOfWeek.Friday
   ldFriday = ldFriday.AddDays(1)
Loop

MsgBox(ldFriday.DayOfWeek)

I cannot find how to convert it into the String (s./b. "Friday") - HOW-TO?
TIA!

Regards,

Ilya
 
Hi,
Code:
Module Module1
    Sub Main()
        ' Use current time.
        ' ... Use a format.
        ' ... Write to console.
        Dim time As DateTime = DateTime.Now
        Dim format As String = "dddd"     '... ddd==Mon, Tue... dddd==Monday, Tuesday...
        Console.WriteLine(time.ToString(format))
    End Sub
End Module
