I need to send a file to a vendor asking for the date (numeric, not a date
data type) in the form CYYMMDD where the "C" is 0 for the 1900's and 1 for
the 2000's. Fair enough.

I figured the easiest was to start with a date data type in the form *CYMD
then make it numeric. I see reference in the RPG documentation on date
data types to *CYMD, but you can't define a date with that format.

Is that right or am I missing something?

Thanks.
