st: Calendar weeks

Dear Statlisters,
Sorry if this has been asked before (could not find it though): is there a function to compute the calendar week number (that is: the week starting on Monday and ending on Sunday) for any given date, or alternatively to compute the Monday of the week that date belongs to -- as opposed to the standard Stata approach to weeks (where the first week of the year is made of the first 7 days of the years, regardless of the day of the week of the first day of the year, and so on, if I am not mistaken).
I am aware of user-written -epiweek- but that defines a week as starting on Sunday and ending on Saturday, so that won't work for me.
Thanks in advance,
Charles
