It is not related to your problem (this time anyway) - others have already pointed out the issue there.

However, I noticed in your code that you have a "naked" d data type in your PI (i.e. one with no DATFMT specified). Unless you can absolutely guarantee that nothing but an ISO date format will ever be used by any program in your system this is a dangerous practice. A naked d means use the default format - but the default can change from program to program based on their H-specs. As a result, the prototype that should protect you from passing an invalid date format into a routine will fail to do its job if the PI/PR rely on defaults.

Personally I'd also specify the other data types in the PI/PRs - but I'm just a cranky old man.
