<h1 class="topictitle1">DATSEP (Date Separator) keyword for display files</h1>
|
||
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to specify the separator character
|
||
for a date field. This keyword is only valid for date fields
|
||
(data type L).</p>
|
||
<div class="section"><p>The format of the keyword is:</p>
|
||
<pre>DATSEP(*JOB | 'date-separator')</pre>
|
||
<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 ( ). Single quotation marks must enclose the parameter.</p>
|
||
<p>If
|
||
you specify the *ISO, *USA, *EUR, or *JIS date format value for the DATFMT
|
||
keyword, you should not specify the DATSEP keyword. These formats have fixed
|
||
date separators.</p>
|
||
<p>If you do not specify the DATSEP keyword and the format
|
||
that is specified for DATFMT does not have a fixed date separator, DATSEP
|
||
is set to *JOB as default.</p>
|
||
<p>If you specify *JOB or if DATSEP is set to
|
||
*JOB as default, the high-level language and the application will handle the
|
||
separator as a slash (/). On output the system will convert the separator
|
||
that was specified by the Date Separator Job Definition Attribute. The system
|
||
converts the separator to a slash (/) as soon as it receives it, before passing
|
||
control to the application.</p>
|
||
<p>The separator for DFT, DFTVAL, and MAPVAL
|
||
keyword values must match the separator the DATSEP keyword specifies. If the
|
||
DATSEP keyword specifies *JOB or the DATSEP keyword is set to *JOB as default,
|
||
these values must have a format of a slash (/).</p>
|
||
<p>The DATSEP keyword overrides
|
||
the job attribute. It does not change the system default.</p>
|
||
<p>It is the
|
||
responsibility of the high-level language and the application to format the
|
||
date field according to the format specified for the DATFMT keyword and use
|
||
the separators specified for the DATSEP keyword. The system does format fields
|
||
on output. The system validates the date field on input according to the format
|
||
that the DATFMT keyword specifies and the separator that the DATSEP keyword
|
||
specifies.</p>
|
||
<p>Option indicators are not valid for this keyword, although
|
||
option indicators can be used to condition the field for which it is specified.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="example"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example</h4><p>The following example shows how to specify
|
||
the DATSEP keyword.</p>

<p>If you want to display the date June 21, 1990, the date

format defined in the Job Definition Attributes is *MDY and the date separator

defined in the Job Definition Attributes is a slash (/), the following values
