Could someone please tell me how to reformat a date?

-SET &PRD_END_DT = &PRD_END_DT;

Returns: 20120630 00:00:00

I would like for it to NOT return the 00:00:00

Thank you,

Do you just want to get rid of the time component at a dialog manager level ?

Then you can use GETTOK or just an EDIT/MASK and keep the first 8 characters.

-SET &DATE_PART = HCNVRT(HINPUT(&PRD_END_DT.LENGTH, &PRD_END_DT, 8, 'HYYMDS'), '(H8)', 8, 'A8');
This will check te validity of the date entered and return 0's if invalid and the yymd part if valid. No slash or - signs.
