WeekdayName Function (Visual Basic) 

Returns a String value containing the name of the specified weekday.

Public Function WeekdayName( _
   ByVal Weekday As Integer, _
   Optional ByVal Abbreviate As Boolean = False, _
   Optional ByVal FirstDayOfWeekValue As FirstDayOfWeek = FirstDayOfWeek.System _
) As String

Parameters

  • Weekday
    Required. Integer. The numeric designation for the weekday, from 1 through 7; 1 indicates the first day of the week and 7 indicates the last day of the week. The identities of the first and last days depend on the setting of FirstDayOfWeekValue.
  • Abbreviate
    Optional. Boolean value that indicates if the weekday name is to be abbreviated. If omitted, the default is False, which means the weekday name is not abbreviated.
  • FirstDayOfWeekValue
    Optional. A value chosen from the FirstDayOfWeek enumeration that specifies the first day of the week. If not specified, FirstDayOfWeek.System is used.

The FirstDayOfWeekValue argument can have one of the following settings.

Exceptions

Exception type Error number Condition

ArgumentException

5

Weekday is less than 1 or greater than 7, or FirstDayOfWeekValue is less than 0 or greater than 7.

See the "Error number" column if you are upgrading Visual Basic 6.0 applications that use unstructured error handling. (You can compare the error number against the Number Property (Err Object).) However, when possible, you should consider replacing such error control with Structured Exception Handling Overview for Visual Basic.

Remarks

The string returned by WeekdayName depends not only on the input arguments, but also on the Regional Options settings specified in the Windows Control Panel.

Note

WeekdayName uses the current calendar setting from the CurrentCulture property of the CultureInfo class in the System.Globalization namespace. The default CurrentCulture values are determined by Control Panel settings.

Example

The following example uses the Weekday function to obtain the day of the week from a specified date, and then the WeekDayName function to obtain the name of the weekday from its number.

Dim oldDate As Date
Dim oldWeekDayName As String
oldDate = #2/12/1969#
oldWeekDayName = WeekdayName(Weekday(oldDate))
' oldWeekDayName now contains "Wednesday".
