I do not know any way to achieve this with CDOW, but i use instead DOW function with an array, as in:

dimension MyWeek[7]
MyWeek[1] = "My Sunday"
MyWeek[2] = "My Monday"
** and so on until saturday
** from now on, use something like
MyDay = MyWeek[dow(SomeDate)]

I use this method all the time for hebrew:-)
