RE: Invalid date on Write to Control Rec

I think my display actually defines a "true date" (DDS Data type = L) ?

I'd guess the display file has a 6-digit date field. 0001-01-01 cannot be converted into a 6-digit date.

I get RNX0114 on: WRITE C1CTL (the subfile control record)

"The year portion of a Date or Timestamp value is not in the correct

This confuses me because a dump shows the control record date field as:

C1DDATFR DATE(10) '0001-01-01'

DDS has C1DDATFR defined as "Data type L"

We're seriously past that born-on date, but I thought "*LOVAL" would
be ok ?
