RE: *DATE on DSPF program

["Leland, David" <dleland@xxxxxxxxxx>]

That's what IBM told me is that is DOES work like the "VALUES" DDS
keyword.  My question to them was, then why don't I receive a program
error when I go through the exact same steps with a field on a screen
with VALUES field validation?

I couldn't get a straight answer on that one.
