Hello,

I've created a *PRTF for tabular output. I want to include the current date into it, so I defined a line with DATE(*YY) EDTCDE(Y). It outputs for today "5.06.2020". I'm struggling with a tiny detail: Either I want to have a leading zero (to make it read 05.06.2020) or to remove the zero on the months display (to make it read 5.6.2020).

Reading the according DDS Reference chapters weren't clarifying how to do that. Adding a DATFMT to the (constant) field is not permitted by the compiler. Do I really need to make it a real field and copy the current date into it within the accompanying RPG "driver"? Or is there another possibility?

V7R2, German Localization.

Thanks!

:wq! PoC
