I'm having a heck of a time attempting to create a sort header to display the 
previous month in YYYYMM format.
No matter what I do I get a syntax error and I've attempted many different ways.

Here is the most recent attempt.  I do not see why there is a syntax error 
where indicated.

SYSIN statements

SORT   FIELDS=(1,2,CH,A)
 OUTFIL FILES=OUT,
 INCLUDE=ALL,
      HEADER1=(1:C'DATE',
              15:&DATE2)

And the error
SYSIN :
      SORT   FIELDS=(1,2,CH,A)
      OUTFIL FILES=OUT,
      INCLUDE=ALL,
           HEADER1=(1:C'DATE',
                             *
                   15:&DATE2-1)
WER268A  OUTFIL STATEMENT  : SYNTAX ERROR


Any insights are appreciated

Bill
