Re: Date field in print file as REFFLD

Got it fixed. Needed PTF 5722SS1-SI30623.

Bottom line, it's because my PF are defined via DDL (SQL) instead of DDS.

Love that IBM help.

As an FYI, here's the cover letter for that PTF:

DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM FIXED FOR APAR 'SE31717' :
-------------------------------------------------
Creation of a physical file from a Data Description
Specifications (DDS) source code that contains a referenced
datetime (date, time or timestamp) field from a SQL table fails
with MSGCPD7498 "Too few values specified for keyword" and
MSGCPD7512 "No value found between left and right parentheses"
logged in the DDS compiler listing.
The failure occurs when the SQL field was defined with one of

5722SS1 V5R4M0 060210 DILGARD 09/16/08 11:24:06 EDT
the following default values:
- CURRENT DATE for a date field.
- CURRENT TIME for a time field.
- CURRENT TIMESTAMP for a timestamp field.
CORRECTION FOR APAR 'SE31717' :
-------------------------------
The DDS compiler has been changed to correctly process the
CURRENT DATE, CURRENT TIME and CURRENT TIMESTAMP default values
for datetime fields being referenced from SQL tables when
creating a physical file.
CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR 'SE31717' :
----------------------------------
ACTIVATION INSTRUCTIONS :
-------------------------
None.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS :
