My money's on Scott's answer...

Click the "Format Options" and make sure you are using a date format with a
4 digit year.

Note if you are trying to run the data transfer using the Excel plug in,
Excel doesn't support years before 1900 (or 1904). So you are going to have
a problem with dates of '0001-01-01'.

I don't use iSeries Access file transfer (so why am I replying to this?
not sure.)

But, that error usually crops up when you have a date like 0001-01-01
(the year 1) and you try to convert it to a 2-digit year. Since the
system doesn't want it to convert to 01-01-01 (since that would be
perceived as 2001) it throws the error message.

Is it possible to set your transfer options to include a 4-digit year?

Hi list,

We're trying to use data transfer in iSeries Access to transfer a file
from the i to the PC. The file includes date fields. Some of the dates
are *LOVAL and when transferring we get error SQL0181 "Value in date,
time, or timestamp field not valid". Any solution to getting the file
transferred?
