Title: RE: Dumb date question

Yes, but basically, you define the format of the date field either implicitly by H-spec or data area or explicity via DATFMT keyword and (*MDY, *YMD, *USA, *ISO, Etc.) as the parameter.

The move opcode using the *MDY in factor 1 tells what format the field (TODAY) in factor 2 is.  The date field ParmAsOf can be of any date format, I'd hazard to guess *ISO, which is the default.

This gets sooo confusing.

I don't understand how this works Jon.  If you define ParmAsOf as a date
field, can it be a *MDY field too?
