Return Specific Date (Friday) using Today as the Relative Start

I need to return the date for the current week's Friday to use as a start date. Any ideas?

Assuming your weeks are Sunday (1) through Saturday (7), where Friday is the 6th day of the week, then this should work:

CurrWeekFriday = TODAY() + 6 - WEEKDAY ( TODAY() )

@Velkins Maybe:

Measure = 
  VAR __Today = TODAY()
  VAR __Weekday = WEEKDAY(TODAY())
RETURN
  SWITCH(__Weekday,
    7,__Today - 1,
    __Today + 7 - __Weekday
  )
