Oggetto: Questions on CONVERT-DATE-TIME and ADD-DURATION

Answer : 
Try to edit the program this way:

WORKING 
        01 w-SYSTEM-DATE           pic x(21).
(**)    01 w-date-1                             pic x(26).
        01 w-SYSTEM-TIME           FORMAT TIME.


(**) You know that the format for a timestamp item must be:
"YYYY-MM-DD-hh.mm.ss.nnnnnn"  where nnn is 1000th sec,
           26 byte total.


PROCEDURE 
 move w-system-date(1:4)  to w-date-1(1:4)
 move "-"                                  to w-date-1(5:1)
 move w-system-date(5:2)  to w-date-1(6:2)
 move "-"                                  to w-date-1(8:1)
 move w-system-date(7:2)  to w-date-1(9:2)
 move "-"                                  to w-date-1(11:1)
 move w-system-date(9:2)  to w-date-1(12:2)
 move "."                                  to w-date-1(14:1)
 move w-system-date(11:2) to w-date-1(15:2)
 move "."                                   to w-date-1(17:1)
 move w-system-date(13:2) to w-date-1(18:2)
 move "."                                    to w-date-1(20:1)
 move "000000"                       to w-date-1(21:6)
 display "w-date-1 " w-date-1
 MOVE FUNCTION CONVERT-DATE-TIME (w-date-1  TIMESTAMP)
      TO w-SYSTEM-TIME.

Let me know if this works on yr. AS/400 too.
