Re: A good one.

parm &month is 4 long, not 2.

&frdate isn't long enough to include the 2 spaces and the 01 or 31 at the
end.

sometimes it just takes another pair of eyes.... ;)

when run, the QRYSLT looks like this in the joblog.

question: Where are my days? 2003 is passed in as the year, 11 is passed in
as the month.
