That's exactly it. DMSPLU accepts only FULLDATE format--but with the leading zeroes filled in. On FILELIST file lines, it's impossible to enter because of the slashes. In commands built from LISTFILE responses, the leading zeroes are missing. (And of course the new FIXDATE was designed as a drop-in replacement for the old one, which didn't have the same syntax as DMSPLU.) ¬R
