Answer 1

DateTime.ParseExact allows you to specify the exact format of the date you are parsing. You can then use ToString("dddd") to return the day of the week as a string.

DateTime date = DateTime.ParseExact("09.02.2009", "dd.MM.yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

string dayOfWeek = date.ToString("dddd");

Alternatively you can use the DayOfWeek property, which returns a System.DayOfWeek enumeration value.

DateTime date = DateTime.ParseExact("09.02.2009", "dd.MM.yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

DayOfWeek day = date.DayOfWeek;
string dayString = day.ToString("G");

Answer 2

    DayOfWeek day = DateTime.ParseExact(
        "26.02.2009", "dd.MM.yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).DayOfWeek;
    string dayString = day.ToString();

Answer 3

Use the DateTime.DayOfWeek Property on your DateTime object.
