RE: Date data type question

1. I'm not in control of our OS version. We have plan to move to V4Rx in
the future, but my boss doesn't like the software subscription stuff.

2. It was a 6 digit date problem. The date was 8 numeric (YYMD), I ended
up moving it to *USA (MDYY) then moving it to *ISO date. Because of the
way I moved it, it fell into the date window stuff.

3. N/A (yay)

Another question: Why isn't there a *YYMD move operation for dates to
handle numeric YYMD dates? Will that be added to RPG/IV in a future
release?
