<h1 class="topictitle1">DATSEP (Date Separator) keyword for physical and logical files</h1>
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to specify the separator character
for a date field. This keyword is valid only for date fields (data type L).</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">The format of the keyword is: <pre>DATSEP(*JOB | 'date-separator')</pre>
</div>
<p>The date separator parameter specifies the
separator character that appears between the year, month, and day. Valid values
are a slash (/), dash (), period (.), comma (,) or blank ( ). The parameter
must be enclosed in single quotation marks (').</p>
<p>If you specify *JOB, the default
is the job attribute.</p>
<p>For physical files, if you do not specify the
DATSEP keyword, the default is the job attribute.</p>
<p>For logical files,
if you do not specify the DATSEP keyword, the default is the date separator
from the physical file. If you did not specify the DATSEP keyword for the
physical file field (*ISO, *USA, *EUR, or *JIS was specified on the DATFMT
keyword), the default for DATSEP is the job attribute.</p>
<p>If you specify
the *ISO, *USA, *EUR, or *JIS date format value on the DATFMT keyword, you
cannot specify the DATSEP keyword. These formats have a fixed date separator.</p>
<p>The
DATSEP keyword overrides the job attribute. It does not change the system
default.</p>
</div>
<div class="example"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example</h4><p>The following example shows how to specify
the DATSEP keyword.</p>
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
00010A
00020A R RECORD1
00030A DATFLD2 L DATFMT(*DMY) DATSEP('-')
00040A DATFLD4 L DATSEP(' ')
A</pre>
<p>If the current date is June 21, 1990, the current system
date format value is MDY, and the system date separator value is '/', DATFLD2
contains 21-06-90. DATFLD4 contains 06 21 90.</p>
