    It would seem to me that the actual question you want answered is how to determine whether the current day is a Saturday or Sunday, because you presumably know how to set a property, whether it's the Text of a ComboBox or anything else. Is that correct? If so, why didn't you ask that question? If not, what is the question you want answered?

    Don't convert things to Strings unless you need a String, which you don't in this case. What type is that DayOfWeek property? Use that type:
    vb.net Code:
    1. If Date.Now.DayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Saturday Then

    That sounds a lot like an ORDER. Now I will have to go out of way to convert everything I can to a String.

    Clearly my reverse psychology is working.
