Create a new flow called Weekday messages, and within this create two blank subflows:
Your main flow should call subflows called GetWeekDay and ShowMessage.
The aim of this flow is to display different messages as follows:
Day of the week | Message to show |
---|---|
Monday | Oh no - it's Monday! |
Friday | Yeah - it's Friday! |
Any other day | Just another working day ... |
To do this, complete your two subflows:
Subflow | What it should do |
---|---|
GetWeekDay | Get the current date, then covert this to text using the custom formatting code ddd. |
ShowMessage | Test whether this is Mon, Fri or some other day, and display a suitable message for each case. |
Run your flow to test if it works. Did it give you the right message?
Although this may seem a frivolous example, you could obviously use it in anger (for example, to call different back up routines on different days of the week).
Save your flow and close it down!
