I am curious why you feel a need to specify the format for the date? It knows what it is.

I am only using a date in my program, that is why I was only setting the date format.

I tried setting the date format in the H spec, but as noted, that only affects the non-SQL part of the code, which already uses *ISO as the default when it is not specified.

I had the Set Option as the very first command in the program. I do not have an *INZSR in this program. It did not do anything. I still got the same error.

The only time I did not get the error was when I prompted the compile command and specified *ISO. The command defaults to *JOB, which apparently is not *ISO.

Usually I specify all the date format and time format settings in my OPTIONS statement. The error refers to both date and time format, but you only set the date format. Might be worth a try. I always specify *ISO and have not had ever a problem.

Can't you use the DATFMT keyword in the H-spec, or does that not work
for SQLRPGLE?

H DATFMT(*ISO)

Betreff: RE: SQL5011 - Why am I getting this?

I tried adding the set option at the beginning of my program.
Exec SQL
SET OPTION DATFMT = *ISO;

But when I tried to compile, it still failed.

The only thing that will work is if I prompt the compile command and
change the date format parameter to *ISO. I prefer to do that
inside of the program when I can because I might forget it the next
time I have to compile the program, but apparently that is the only
way the SQL precompiler will recognize it.
