RE: CVTDAT TOSEP(*NONE) not working?

["Exterior Wood" <tnonamaker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Converting any of these formats will leave the separators in: 
*ISO, *USA, *EUR, *JIS 

When you are entering the cvtdat cmd and prompt it and then prompt for the
help text, when you scroll down to the section that says

Field Size and Minimum Variable Length

When you look at the *Iso line it basically shows that the ToSep is
disregarded which is reflected in the min field size of 10

The other formats such as *mdy show either Any or None

Thanks,
