  Function definition: (Copy & paste into FileMaker's Edit Custom Function window)

Returns a list of only those dates in the specified range whose day-of-week is included in the weekDays parameter.

The weekDays parameter requires a list of days-of-week (as numbers), separated by carriage returns. For example "1¶7" indicates Sundays and Saturdays.

This formula:
WeekDaysInRange ( Date ( 3 ; 1 ; 2006 ) ; Date ( 4 ; 0 ; 2006 ) ; "1¶7" )
returns all Sundays and Saturdays in the month of March, 2006.
