Hello,

altough I'm not an expert, I found a solution (maybe not the most
elegant.....)

d<-as.Date(c("2000/01/03","2000/01/05","2000/01/19","2000/01/28")) 
r<-rnorm(4) 
da<-data.frame(d,r) 

a<-as.Date("01/01/2000","%d/%m/%Y") 
b<-as.Date("30/01/2000","%d/%m/%Y") 
ab<-seq(a,b,by=1) 
c<-format(ab,"%a") 
date<-data.frame(ab,c) 
date<-subset(date,c!="Sun") 
date<-subset(date,c!="Sat") 


names(da) <- c("a","r")
names(date) <- c("a","day")
outp <- merge(date,da,all=T)
outp$hd <-0
outp$hd[!is.na(outp$r)] <- 1


Kind regards

Bart
