Day of the Week from DATE$ as day name

A small wrapper function for Quazee137's tiny Day Of The week function. Takes a date string as dd-mm-yyyy e.g. that returned by DATE$ or LEFT$(Humantime$(x,0),10) and returns the day name.

Beware the date format must be dd-mm-yyyy, no error checking is performed.


Syntax:
DoWDay$(date_str$)

Example Usage:
Day$=DoWDay$("20-08-1995")

Dependencies:

• Compact Quick Day Of Week function with historical capability
  

	Function DoWDay$(dd$)
		Select Case DayOfWeek(val(mid$(dd$,7,4)),val(mid$(dd$,4,2)),val(left$(dd$,2)))
			Case 0:DoWDay$="Sun"
			Case 1:DoWDay$="Mon"
			Case 2:DoWDay$="Tue"
			Case 3:DoWDay$="Wed"
			Case 4:DoWDay$="Thu"

		End Select
	End Function
