I started to post this:
As far as I know the human readable is only used during output.  In other
words, there is no conversion during sorting.  The system is already sorting
by the internal representation of the date.

But now I realize that someone actually STORED the OCONV version of a date
in a file??!!!  ROFLOL!!  Now that's funny.....

Subject: [U2] Date ICONV In English


To All:

Is there any simple method short of an Itype or called routine to convert
the
human date of 12/15/05 into its ICONV version to then sort by.

I've run into another data file on a customer's system that has this in a
specific place, albeit non-sortable. I could write a [] conversion to put
the
year first, but I would like to know of a process code that may help.

Thanks in advance.
Mark Johnson
