It might be related to what format the date field is getting assigned in your program, might not be compatible if it is *ISO for example. Try setting the DATFMT on your h spec to *USA also.

Subject: MAPVAL issues
Does anyone use the MAPVAL keyword? I am having the following issue,
My date field is defined like so:
A RPTDT L I 5 29DATFMT(*USA)
A MAPVAL(('01/01/0001' *BLANK))
I am reading into a data structure defined like this:
dcl-ds dsprec likerec(display: *all);
But when I read the record (using EXFMT), a blank keyed on the screen is input as a blank which causes invalid format error when the field is used.
What am I doing wrong?
