Knowing which date format you are viewing is always a pain for me - some system I support have mm/dd/yy and others have dd/mm/yy, and still others use yy/mm/dd.
I prefer, where possible, to us a 3 char MONTH abbreviation. Then you know which is the MONTH. and use a 4 digit YEAR. leaving only a 2 or 3 digit day value. Easy Tom Brennan's Vista TN3270 allows such on the status line. &trantime %d/%b/%Y.%j %I:%M%p &hostaddr &hostname Regards Bruce Hewson ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
