Re: getting system date and system time

What about:

D SYSYMD S 6 0 inz(*SYS) D SYSTIME S 6 0 inz(*SYS)

?

Another choice would be to not use the two fields at all, nut instead use %date() & %time() where you are using SYSMYD & SYSTIME; e.g. eval DateField = %date()

Is there a better way to retrieve the system date and time than this, or
is this as good as any?
System date, not the job date.
D SYSYMD S 6 0 D SYSTIME S 6 0 /FREE SYSYMD = %DEC(%SUBST(%CHAR(%TIMESTAMP:*ISO0):3:6):6:0); SYSTIME = %DEC(%SUBST(%CHAR(%TIMESTAMP:*ISO0):9:6):6:0); /END-FREE C SETON LR Jim Horn
