Re: Test Date

This piece of code works:

0088.00 C     FmtIn         WhenEq    '*MDY'                                
 0089.00 C     *mdy          test(d)                 DateN      99 0090.00
C  N99*mdy          move      DateN         DateISO                  
0091.00 C   99              move      '1'           Error                   


The only *ISO dates that will not convert are those dates earlier than
January, 1940 or later than December 2039.  You will have to do that test
in order to see if *ISO will convert to *MDY
