I am working with SBS w2k3 Server Spanish version.
I need the day of week to do a msdos script.
if I put 'date /t' shows dd/mm/yyyy format, I don't need this. I need ddd, dd/mm/YYYY format. Can you help me, please??
control panel > regional > date

First, Excuse me for my English, it is very bad.
I know I can choose date format in Control Panel. But only shows dd/mm/yyyy format in ms-dos, I can not change it.
I try to explain me better.
I am doing a ms-dos script. When I put 'date /t' in command line only shows the format I say before, and I want the day of week. I will be crazy finding it.

Right! I don't mind if it is in English or Spanish, but I need to Know if it is Sun, Mon.. or Friday. And I don't mind if it shows only with 3 caracters o completly.
Do you understand me?

This will get the day of the week from BIOS, regardless of language, region or anything else.

Day of week is available in some locales and not other. You can set your locale through the control panel. Have a look at the variable %dow% that is getting set in the US section.
%dow% day of the week ie Wed
%mm% month
%dd% day of the month
%yy% 4 digit year
%hh% hour
%min% minute
%sec% second
