  2. COBOL400-L
  3. September 2016

is COBOL ILE smart enough to move a screen-defined date field *MDY mm/dd/yy to a database-defined *ISO yyyy-mm-dd field?

I would hope that COBOL is smart enough to be able to move a *MDY date to a *ISO date. However I am seeing error LNR7203 exception "The contents of date-time item does not match its format."

It is hard to tell what the exact issue is, because it is using MOVE CORR to move all the screen fields to the database fields, and there are several date fields.

Thanks!
