Is there any way in SORT control cards (either DFSORT or SYNCSORT) to test for 
a certain day of the week?  Something like this, assuming '3' represents the 
DOW value for Wednesday:

OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(DOW(&DATE1),EQ,3),
                                    BUILD=(C'WEDNESDAY=DATE VALUE + 
5',&DATE1+5)),
                 IFTHEN=(WHEN=(DOW(&DATE1),NE,3),
                                    BUILD=(C'NOT-WEDNESDAY=DATE VALUE + 
3',&DATE1+3))

I have searched in both vendors' FM's but I did not find any indication of such 
a function.

I know I can handle such a requirement in an exit routine (and more flexibly as 
well), but I was hoping someone already needed such a function and one of the 
vendors already provided a solution, maybe with an SPE (documented or not).

TIA for any help you  can provide.
