<h1 class="topictitle1">DATE (Date) keyword for display files</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to display the current date as a constant
|
|
(output-only) field.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>You can specify the location of the field, the DATE keyword, and,
|
|
optionally, EDTCDE , EDTWRD, COLOR, DSPATR, or TEXT keywords. Positions 17
|
|
through 38 must be blank.</p>
|
|
<p>The format of the keyword is:</p>
|
|
<pre>DATE([*JOB|*SYS] [*Y|*YY])</pre>
|
|
<p>The *JOB value causes the current job date to be displayed.
|
|
If you do not specify a parameter, the parameter is set to *JOB as default.
|
|
The *SYS parameter displays the current system date.</p>
|
|
<p>If
|
|
you specify *Y, 2 digits are used to represent the year in the date format
|
|
that the job attribute DATFMT designates. If you specify *YY, 4 digits are
|
|
used to represent the year in the date format that the job attribute DATFMT
|
|
designates. If you do not specify a parameter, the parameter is set to *Y
|
|
as default.</p>
|
|
<p>The W edit code on the EDTCDE keyword returns a correctly
|
|
formatted date only if a four digit year (*YY) is requested, and the job attribute
|
|
DATFMT is YMD.</p>
|
|
<div class="p">If you specify EDTCDE(Y) on a field with the DATE keyword,
|
|
separators are added according to the date format that the DATFMT job attribute
|
|
designates. For example, using EDTCDE(Y) when the DATFMT job attribute specifies
|
|
*MDY changes the date from <pre>mmddyy</pre>
|
|
to <pre>mm/dd/yy.</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>The
|
|
date separator is retrieved from the job attribute DATSEP at run time, and
|
|
the job attribute DATFMT determines the order of the month, day, and year.
|
|
(DATFMT can be MDY, DMY, YMD, or JUL, where M=month, D=day, Y=year, and JUL=Julian.
|
|
DATSEP can be a slash (/), dash (-), period (.), or comma (,).)</p>
|
|
<p>The
|
|
field length is dependent on the following conditions:</p>
|
|
<ol><li>The format that the DATFMT job attribute specifies.</li>
|
|
<li>Whether the date field includes separators. The EDTCDE(Y) keyword controls
|
|
separators.</li>
|
|
<li>The number of digits used to represent the year. The *Y and *YY parameters
|
|
on the DATE keyword control the number of year digits.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>Option indicators are not valid for this keyword, although option
|
|
indicators can be used to condition the field on which it is specified.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="example"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example</h4><p>The following example shows how to specify
|
|
the DATE keyword.</p>
|
|
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
|
|
00010A 20 1 56DATE(*SYS)
|
|
00020A 21 1 56DATE(*Y) EDTCDE(Y)
|
|
A</pre>
|
|
<p>Option indicator 20 causes the system date to be displayed
|
|
without editing if it is on. Dates with 2 digit years are displayed with editing
|
|
if option indicator 20 is off and option indicator 21 is on.</p>
