I wrote some mods to SETDATE to support LISTFILE's date format, as well as backslashes or exclamation marks for date separators so it works from FILELIST. Perhaps even other date formats (don't recall from the car).
I should send them to the SETDATE author.

Of course the > date and time must be properly formatted, 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 The information contained in this e-mail and any accompanying documents may contain information that is confidential or otherwise protected from disclosure.
