[Download-List] Header record/date format

[Shawn Waldie]

Good morning all.

I'm not sure how, but I would like to include @DATE, with a YYYY-MM-DD
format, in the header record of what will be a fixed-length file.  If it
matters, it will also be preceded and followed by string of other
characters.  I'm starting with the following:

DOWNLOAD PERSON \
  FILE _HOLD_ STU_CONTACT \
  FORMAT FIXED OVERWRITING \
 HEADING \
  LITERAL "string" @DATE LITERAL "string" \
 DETAIL \
  field1 \
    BEG.COL x \
  filed2 \
    BEG.COL y \
   .
   .
   .


Any suggestions?


TIA
