RE: date validate

Exactly.  The system expects the value moved into the field to conform to
the YMD format.  If it doesn't, the system can't convert it to whatever the
internal format is and sends an error as a result.

Doesn't an L field store the date any way it wants to?  Isn't the idea 
of the *YMD just to inform the L field what to expect?  That the data 
coming in is in YMD, so it can differentiate between January 2, 2003, 
February 3, 2001, and March 1, 2002?
