RE: Bug in IBM Date Routies %month

No actually I use embedded SQL quite a bit...but not ALL RPG programmers
do...not all shops purchase the DB2 tools (i.e. SQL, etc...)  Not to
mention that it shouldn't be that difficult to do....

As to the stubborn streak...yep I got one...but that was not a
motivating factor in my email....besides IBM *IS* updating RPG to help
us programmers more easily achieve our results...so why not??? 


Thanks,
Tommy Holden

They did with the SQL option someone posted.
The thought of putting imbedded SQL in your code go against your
stubborn 
streak?  Then put the sql into a service program and export the 
subprocedure and you've got a new bif.
If you still want the bif, then submit a DCR to emulate the sql
function. 
You can submit a dcr at
