Question : How to retrieve ONLY the column I need from a select statement

Hi,

I have a SELECT statement but at the moment it brings back all columns relating to the day it retrieves. Below is the SELECT statement. What I would like to do is only retrieve the data for the day I am retrieving for; so, if I run this and it's Wednesday, I only want each of these to bring back Wednesdays column. Is there a way to do this and also to make the column retrieved just say DCS1, DCS2, DCS3, DCS4 instead of the week day in front of it?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Ken
