John, The trick is to get the "date" command to prompt for the command-line arguments, so it will read from the input device. Issuing the command "date ?" will result in the command prompting you with "DAY,DATE,TIME,TO=VER/K:" and waiting for you to enter the parameters. Consequently, if you enter the command: date <ram:mydate >nil: ? you will get the desired results. Hope this helps…. – BobR
