Just as an aside, IIRC from my VSE days, the current cpu date at the time
the job starts (or overridden by a // DATE card) was the date that was
maintained for the duration of the job.
If you started after midnight, how (which direction) was the date "a day
out"?

Subject: Cobol ACCEPT-DATE
Hi folks
Is ACCEPT-DATE supposed to return GMT time, or local time?
We have some issues with a program which was recently rescheduled to run
just after midnight (British Summer Time) - but the date is a day out.. I'm
wondering if it's because it's an old program getting the date in the wrong
way somehow (that we can fix), or if that's just the way Cobol works..??
