>>since I am not interested in dates in the 20th century, could I use COND=(12,3,Y2U,GE,&DATE3P-7) ?
Tim, If you are input data is always going to 20th century then you use Y2U format in the form Y'string' . Something like this INCLUDE COND=(12,3,Y2U,GE,Y'DATE3'-7) Thanks, Kolusu DFSORT Development IBM Corporation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
