Ok, I got
spcval((*CURRENT 01012000))

to work for the date...

Now to figure out the time.

Elvis,

That doesn't appear to work.

The command won't compile. I've seen two different errors depending
on what I try. CPD0271 - Special value not valid or CPD0257 - value
not a valid date.

I'm having the same problem on a time parameter, but with that one
I've only ever seen CPD0271.

Perhaps SPCVAL((*CURRENT 999999)) and then handle 999999 as a special value
in the command processing program?

Subject: Create command with Date parameter that allows *CURRENT special
value

All,

I know I've done this before, but I don't recall how nor can I find
anything on the net.

How do I need to define the SPCVAL((*CURRENT)) for a date parameter on
a command?

Thanks!
Charles
