RE: INZ('keyword')

Of course we won't now ask WHY you are hardcoding 5/2/97 into your programs.

Thanks for all of the response.  Indeed it was the D that I was missing.
In the end the code looked like this:


0005.00 hdatfmt(*mdy)

0008.00 d DateTest        s               d   DATFMT(*ISO)

0009.00 d                                     Inz(d'05/02/97')

I not only had to use the D, but I had to put the date in the format and
order specified on the H line.  In the end I used parts of many answers to
get the right one.  But the D was the critical part.  Jeff and Tim pointed
that out.

Thanks.
