I also wondered if he had format *YMD0 instead of *YMDO. Sometimes I have had trouble telling a zero from an oh.

I wonder too if just removing the DatFmt keyword would make everything work?

This absolutely baffles me.. why this particular error? Maybe it doesn't understand the DATFMT(*USA) on an array? Have you tried leaving that off, and working with it as *ISO?

FWIW, I never ever use DATFMT on a D-spec like you did, which might be why I never ran into this particular error. Whenever I work with dates, I always work with them in *ISO format, and then when it's time to print them or whatever I want to do with them, THAT's the point at which I specify the format.

In your case, since you're specifying *YMD0 for the output, why would you care what format the input is?

But, even so, your code SHOULD work... and in fact it does on my machine. (I'm at V5R3, but I specified TGTRLS(V5R2M0) when I compiled it.) and I see that others have tried it and didn't have problems on V5R2 either. Hmmm...
