RE: diff btw Procedures and Routines

Thanks Ali,  but I tried that also and got the same error message.  I must
have tried 6 different formats for the date all with the same error message.

try Inz(D'2002/08/12'), because *ISO is yyyy/mm/dd.

I am getting a "Thje Date Literal is not valid"  error message whenever I
compile my RPG program.   Below is how I have defined the date:


   40 DTodaysDate       S               D   DatFmt(*ISO)
Inz(D'08/12/2002')

 ======> a

 *RNF0305 20 a      004000  The value D'08/12/2002' is not a valid *ISO-
Date literal.
     41


I want to initialize a the date field to that value.
I have consulted manuals and they all indicate this is the way to define and
initialize a date field.

Any help is greatly appreciated.


Thanks, Rudy.
