You could write your own function:

Well, I didn't know the answer off the top of my head, so I went to my msdn
library and looked up the vbscript functions. Recognizing that you may not
be an msdn subscriber, or that you may not have online help installed, I
went to msdn.microsoft.com/library, expanded the Web Development node in the
table of contents frame, scrolled down to and expanded the Scripting node,
expanded the Documentation node, expanded Windows Script Technologies node,
expanded the VBScript node, expanded Reference, and clicked on the Functions
node. Looking through the function names listed on the page, I see there is
a MonthName function, and, sure enough, a WeekdayName function, both of
which should do what you want.

Instead of the web-based documentation, you may wish to download the
scripting documentation. Here it is:
