Hello Willie,
I am trying to use the 8 digit (yyyymmdd) date in 191 - 198 of the SDS. No date was displaying.
midrange.com
The following program works correctly on my system:
D SDS
D jobDate 191 198
/free
dsply jobDate;
*inlr = *on;
/end-free
Try it. It works.
I don't see why you'd want to use this, since *DATE gives you the exact
same value and is easier to code. Also, just to be absolutely sure that
you understand this -- the date that it retrieves is the date that the job
was started. That means it's the date that you signed on, or that your
batch job was submitted. It's NOT the current date. If you stay signed
on after midnight, the job date won't change.
If you want to get the current date, use the %date() BIF or the TIME op-code.
