-SET &WDAY= DOWK(&YYMD,A3);
-SET &TAW= DECODE &WDAY( MON 1 TUE 2 WED 3 THU 4 FRI 5 SAT 6 SUN 0 ELSE 0);
-SET &DIF= (-1)*&TAW;
-SET &EDATE= AYMD(&YYMD , &DIF, I8);
-SET &SDATE= AYMD(&EDATE , -6, I8);
-SET &SDAT2 = AYMD(&SDATE,-7,'I8');
-SET &EDAT2 = AYMD(&EDATE,7,'I8');

-DEFAULT &SDATE1 = &SDATE;

-TYPE &SDATE &SDATE1 &EDATE
-EXIT

As is stands, that treats "&SDATE" as a constant. To get it evaluated, either use -SET rather than -DEFAULT, or append .EVAL
