RE: date validate

You need to do a TEST(DE) on the field on the screen before moving it to a
DATE defined field.

I am getting this error cond. C
 Date, Time or Timestamp value is not valid (C G D F).

 Type reply, press Enter.

iow, it breaks up the screen, rather than letting my program handle it.

 I defined this
D Datefield       S               D   DATFMT(*ymd)

I move the date from the screen to Datefield. The date on screen is
defined as num. 6 00.

Then I do the TEST

c                   test                    datefield              22
c                   if        *in22 = *on
c                   iter
c                      endif

Why doesn't the program logic kick in?

Thanks,
Steve
