Re: Eliminating MOVE (was Milliseconds)

Out of curiosity, is there a way to eliminate the MOVE in the following
code:

D Date8           S              8  0 INZ(20031231)      
D IsoDate         S               D                      
                                                         
C                   Eval      IsoDate = %date(Date8:*iso)
C     isodate       adddur    1:*DAYS       IsoDate      
C                   move      IsoDate       Date8        

WITHOUT using /free format?

Thanks!
