Re: Date format "CYYMMDD" -- RPG400-L

Hi Patrik,

I didn't mean to imply I had a problem, I was responding to your question
"Have you ever seen 18xx date in AS/400 world?". I have seen them, as
birthdates, mainly in the healthcare industry. The packages I work with
unfortunately use 3 separate fields for each date - 4.0 year, 2.0 month and
2.0 day. Given a choice, I'd use date fields.
