Thanks Michael (and everyone else) I came to the same conclusion, so I
jumped through a few DS hoops, and I used an API.  Oh well, it works!

D                 DS
D Today                           D   Inz(*Sys) DatFmt(*ISO)
D  YYYY                          4    Overlay(Today)
D  MM                            2    Overlay(Today: 6)
D  DD                            2    Overlay(Today: 9)
D AlphaToInt      PR            10I 0 ExtProc('atoi')
D String                          *   Options(*string) Value

 /Free
     ChUdat = AlphaToInt(YYYY + MM + DD);
 /End-Free
