RE: doing date arithmetic in CL

Rick,

Simpler than what?

A "CL-only" solution is going to be extremely cumbersome and fragile.  If it
were me, I'd write the needed code in RPG IV and write a CL command to
invoke it.  It can be done, but CL is so poorly suited to the task that I
would not try it.  If you are in an environment without an HLL compiler and
think that you must use CL, look into ReXX and SQL (via query management
query.)
