Why would you use an array? Just create it as a DateTime, and it will give you (nearly) all the information you could want:

VB

Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Parse("20/12/2011")
Console.WriteLine(dt.DayOfWeek)

Why?
That one works, and is not restricted to a single language - it will return a day of the week name in the users current language and culture.
If you implement it yourself, I suspect you will miss some languages completely.
Do not re-invent the wheel - if a library method exists, use it!
