PRB: Weekday() Function Ignores First Weekday Option

    Article ID: Q120974
    Creation Date: 23-SEP-1994
    Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996

    The information in this article applies to:

    • Microsoft Access version 2.0

    SYMPTOMS

    Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

    When you set the First Weekday option to any day other than the default day of Sunday, the Weekday() function ignores the option setting and returns the default values for the days of the week.

    RESOLUTION

    The Microsoft Access version 2.0 "Language Reference" manual, in the "Weekday Function" topic on pages 654-655, should state that you must use 0 (zero) as the first argument for the Weekday() function in order to allow the function to recognize the First Weekday option setting.

    This information is documented correctly in the "Weekday Function" topic in the Microsoft Access Help system.
