Re: *MDY (Factor 1) for Version 4r4

Are you sure moving to V4R4 is the only change you've made ?  I wouldn't have
expected your Move to work in the first place unless one of the fields was a
real date field.  Anyway - you need to decide if you're going to use real dates
or not.  The default for CVTOPT is to keep dates as dates rather than convert to
character which is what *DATETIME does.

When you code:

D LowDate         S                   LIKE(PXBEGD) INZ('0001-01-01')

You are saying that LowDate is a _real_ date field - therefore the init value
should be D'0001-01-01' it has a D in front of it (don't ask why it makes no
sense to me).  When you previously compiled with CVTOPT(*DATETIME) you were
causing PXBEGD to be defined as a character field and therefore LowDate was also
character and the init without the D was just fine.

Just as an aside - your LowDate is not really needed *LOWVAL would work just
fine.
