Re: Date Data Type in O-Spec

That will affect all date fields in your program, it may not be an issue,
but be careful. You can add the DATFMT to the D spec when you define the
output field.

I find it weird I can't find anything on this. I am putting out a date
data
type field on a report defined as O-Specs (minor updates to an older
program). How do I format the date to a format I want? Currently it comes
out as *ISO. I want it in *USA. I am trying to do:

O ADUEDATE 34DDATFMT(*USA)

but I get a invalid date format error.
