CJOB=(12,8,CH)
CDATE=(20,10,CH,CLR,DATEFMT=(YYYY/MM/DD))

The expiration date is input in packed format (yyddd) and requires no conversion. However, the creation date is input in character format and requires an appropriate date format because it is different from the preferred output date format specified earlier in the EXEC statement. The examples describe an input file with the following format:

Position Meaning

2 through 7   Volume serial number
8 through 11  Expiration date
