Hi kylera,

You could modify the DATE field that Word inserts with your current method. To do this:
• select the DATE field and press Shift-F9. You should see something like {DATE}
• edit the DATE field so that you end up with {DATE \@ DDDD}
• press F9 to update the field.
Note: the number of Ds (1-4) determines the day display format (eg '1', '01', 'Mon', 'Monday'). You can even get clever and have {DATE \@ "DDDD, D"}, for 'Monday, 1'
