Hi Gary

You still might not have specified the date format on the display file - default is likely your job's date format, which is often *MDY.

I've not checked the documentation, but this might be it.

I must admit that I ran into some difficulty trying to change to a date type in an old app we have - went back to a numeric with a Y edit code, I think. Things just didn't behave as I wanted, and I didn't have time to really work out my kinks.

Anyhow, good luck!
Vern

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
range (C G D F)."

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 ?
