You have to use just two assign [activities](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/docs/introduction).

Declare two variables -

**myDay** as String type  
**dayNumber** As Integer

Assign Activity, `myDay = “Monday”`  
Assign Activity, `dayNumber = (CInt([Enum].Parse(GetType(DayOfWeek), myDay)))`

Use MessageBox to display dayNumber which displays 1.
