[SOLVED] Business days Function - TWO DIFFERENT WORK DAYS IN SAME FEX

Hi
I have a function that gives me work days when there are 6 work days (m-sat) . Worked fine. But Now I need to add 3 Work days (m-w-f) for of the locations..

I duplicated the function with setting business days different , but it gives me only work days based on 6 days a week. For example, November 2013, it gives 21 days for both functions..

Can anyone see what the problem is here.. I looked at it and can't figure out, why it is taking 6 work days and not 3 Work day week..
here is the code

Thanks
  
-*-******************************************************************************
-*-* Find mon-sat days in a month - (6 days a week)
-*-******************************************************************************
SET BUSDAYS = _MTWTFS;
DEFINE FUNCTION WD_MON6 (year/I4,month/I2)
6this_iyym/I6YYM = (year*100)+month;
6bom_yymd/YYMD = 6this_iyym;
WD_MON6/I2 = DATEDIF(6bom_yymd,DATEMOV(6bom_yymd,'EOM')+1,'BD');
END
-RUN
-*-******************************************************************************
-*-* Find mon-WED-FRI days in a month - (3 days a week)
-*-******************************************************************************
SET BUSDAYS = _M_W_F_;
DEFINE FUNCTION WD_MON3 (year/I4,month/I2)
3this_iyym/I6YYM = (year*100)+month;
3bom_yymd/YYMD = 3this_iyym;
WD_MON3/I2 = DATEDIF(3bom_yymd,DATEMOV(3bom_yymd,'EOM')+1,'BD');
END
-RUN

The code you shared with us DEFINES the functions.

You need to set the business days (SET BUSDAYS = _M_W_F_) just before you CALL the function.

Thanks Francis
I have the SET BUSDAYS = _M_W_F_ before each function starts.. (see previous code here) then I have my source file Defined
in the Define then I figure out week days based on the location, if the Location has 3 days, use the WD_MON3 function and if the location has 6 days, use the WD_MON6 function
See sample below 
  
DEFINE FILE LOCTABLE 
WEEKDAYS1/I2 = IF LOCWD EQ 3 THEN WD_MON3(GLYR1,GL_MTH1) ELSE
               IF LOCWD EQ 6 THEN WD_MON6(GLYR1,GL_MTH1) ELSE 0;
END

Remove the semi-colon at the end of your set -- I didn't test but maybe your BUSDAYS aren't really being set due to the semi-colon.
SET commands don't get semi-colons
-SET commands get semi-colons.

I had tried that, but as I indicated above, I got it done, keeping it separate

Thanks
