Isn't there a function which would take the number of day and convert
it to text? If not, just write an EVALUATE statement like:

	EVALUATE number-of-day
                 WHEN 0 THEN
                      MOVE 'SUNDAY' to text-of-day
                 WHEN 1 THEN
                      MOVE 'MONDAY' to text-of-day
                 WHEN 2 THEN
                      MOVE 'TUESDAY' to text-of-day
  etc.

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad 
for them, it's failing.
