What day is it?

Hi folks!

I need to display a particular text box depending on the day.

ie

If it's Mon, Tues, Wed or Thurs - display txt1
If it's Friday - display txt2

How could I go about doing this?

Cheers

Simon

Try this:

Sub form_load()
Dim a As String
a = UCase(Format(Day(Now), "dddd"))
Select Case a
Case "Monday"
txt1.Visible = True
End Select
End sub

Try the following:

Code:

---

Select Case Format(Date, "dddd")
    Case "Sunday"
        'It's Sunday
    Case "Monday"
        'It's Monday
    Case "Tuesday"
        'It's Tuesday
    Case "Wednesday"
        'It's Wednesday
    Case "Thursday"
        'It's Thursday
    Case "Firday"
        'It's Firday
    Case "Saturday"
        'It's Saturday
End Select

---

Code:

---

Select Case Weekday(Now)
  'mon - thu
  Case 2 To 5
    Text1.Visible = True
  'friday
  Case 6
    Text2.Visible = True
  Case Else
    'else
End Select

---

Oh well, as usual beatean to it :(
look like i am the one guilty of posting after the answer.

Use the Weekday function:

Code:

---

Dim intWeekday  As Integer
Dim dtmTestDate As Date

intWeekday = Weekday(dtmTestDate)
Select Case intWeekday
    Case Is vbMonday To vbThursday
        Text1.Text = "Monday thru Thursday message"
    Case vbFriday
        Text1.Text = "Friday message"
    Case Else
        ' whatever
End Select

---

Waheey!

Thanks guys for probably the speediest replies on record :)

I can't get into your other post for some reason so I'll give you my answer to your question on datediff here:

'my guess (I'm not sure where it starts counting)
'thurs or Mon...the stuff is hard reading..


'assuming there are 5 working days in each week

Dim nDateDiff As Variant
nDateDiff = DateDiff("w", Date, "20/10/2000", vbMonday) * 5
x = nDateDiff
MsgBox x

Thanks! That's great!

Cheers
