I am missing a step and don't know the "right" answer.  Here's the code:

      * Set Registration date to mm/dd/yy
     C                   MOVE      *Blanks       ENLTDT8           8
     C     *ISO          TEST(D)                 ENLTDT                 98
     C     *IN98         IFEQ      *OFF
     C                   Move      EnLTDT        DateISO
     C     *MDY/         MOVE      DATEISO       ENLTDT8
     C                   END

This works fine unless it is date outside the 1940-2039 window.  How do
others test for the window?
