  I have been attempting to figure out how to retrieve the current system
  date
  and assign it to a display file, but am running into trouble.
  This needs to display in *USA format.
  Here is what I did:
  * first declare standalone
  Dmydate   s     D    datfmt(*usa)
  in the C specs I had the following
  eval        mydate = *date
  move       mydate     ddate
  I keep getting an error that the two sides of the eval do not
  match....suggestions?
