Printing Date data types

[mgarczynski]

I have some fields in my tables defined as Date Data Types. By default, the data types are set to 01/01/0001. On the display, I use keyword MAPVAL(('01/01/0001' *BLANK)) to display the field as blank. There doesn't appear to be a similar keyword for external Print Files. Anyone have any tips on how to work around. I guess I could condition print on an indicator but was looking for alternatives.

One alternative is to use a character field in the print file and load it only when there is a date you want to print:

Clear prtdate;
If realdate > *loval;
  Eval prtdate = %char(realdate:*usa);
Endif;

I'm missing MAPVAL for printerfiles too.
If you raise a RFE ( request for enhancement ) I would vote for it.
