Date data type question

  • Subject: Date data type question
  • From: "Goodbar, Loyd (AFS-Water Valley)" <LGoodbar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Thu, 8 Oct 1998 11:52:13 -0400 
I'm reengineering an application in RPG/IV, and I am using date data
types extensively. A big problem I'm having is processing birth dates.
Many people I'm processing have birth dates before 1940, so I get the
error "The year portion of a Date or Timestamp value is not in the range
1940 to 2039." Is there anything I can do to use these dates with the
date data type or must I still use a numeric format? Running V3R7.

Thanks,
Loyd Goodbar
