This is how that function is supposed to operate. Firstdayofmonth() will return a julian date (day of the year). Dayofweek() requires a full date (mm-dd-yyyy). Think of it this way, how would dayofweek() know what year it is from a julian date? What are you trying to accomplish from this?

I am trying to find the firstdayofmonth(date) and then find what dayofweek(FirstDayofMonth(date)) is. For example: <cfset firstday = FirstDayofMonth("12/17/2001")> <cfset weekday = DayofWeek(firstday)> <cfoutput>#firstday# #Weekday# </cfoutput> This will give you: 335 for firstday (12/1/01) 6 for Weekday(11/30/1900) If you try to do a dateformat(firstday,"mm/dd/yyyy") you get 11/30/1900 . You don't get an error reporting that you can't do that. You just get the wrong answer. So I think that is a bug with CF 4.5. Any ideas. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your ad could be here.
