Hm,  didn't realize that would work.

BUT...looks like it's a special case since *YEAR, *DATE are used to access the 
job date.

For what the original poster wanted, and for what I've wanted to do.  You need 
to be able to pass *DAYS (not *DAY!!), *WEEKS, *MONTHS, or for instance *MDY, 
or *ISO0.

That is not possible as far as I can tell.
