ADDJOBSCDE CMD(CALL MYPROGRAM FRQ(*MONTHLY) SCDDATE(*MONTHEND)That will eliminate any need to compute the last day of the month in your program. All you would then do is retrieve the month in your program and convert it to character to use in your library name.
Incidentally, you might be better served by naming the libraries with a common alphabetic prefix and then the date in YYYYMM format. Then you wouldn't even have to convert the month to character and, in addition, when you work with the libraries from a command line they will display in sorted order.

Let me describe what I'm trying to do. I'm sure it's pretty simple for anyone who knows CL.I need to create a library with the month-end name (i.e. after January month-end, I'd need a JAN2006 library) that will contain 10 files which I copy into it. I will need to do this every month as part of our month-end process. I assume it will have to subtract several days from today's date and pull the month and year from that date in case month-end is not run on the last day of the month Is there a simple CL program to do this.John A Candidi Rutgers Insurance Companies IT Director - AS/400 Manager 856-779-2274
