 >> My question was how to convert days to date(in RPG/400 only) ?

The easy way to do it is to use an RPG IV program which uses the new operations
and call it from your RPG III (RPG/400) code.  But if this is new code, why on
earth are you writing it in an obsolete version of the RPG language?

If for some reason you enjoy doing things the hard way and insist on a
completely RPG III solution, then take a look at Paul Conte's "Last Date
Routines You'll Ever Need" which were published by News/400 in 1992 or so.  You
can find the source code on their web site.
