We are on V5R4 and I am not sure, if this is a PTF issue.
I searched the net but couldn't come closer.

Here is the code:

D Date5 S D INZ(D'1939-06-01')
D Date8 S 8 0 INZ(20080101)

Date8 = %Uns(%char(Date5:*CYMD0))
DATE8 = 00390601

Per IBM I have to use the 3 Digit format for this but result is not good for a 8 digit field but good for 6 digit.

My objective is to get the DATE8 = 19390601 in the simplest Date format.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
