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.
