Sort a Six character date with OPNQRYF correctly

I recall doing this at one time but memory is failing me on how
this gets done.... The century was "added" on to this file but the 
date ended up being defined as 6 postions zoned decimal. The key
option will not accept %SST but I remember somthing about mapping
the date back to "unused" fields or somthing along those lines...

or maybe it was some sort of "fake" format file ??????
