L-date field to *mdy

[boothm@xxxxxxx]

This  seems simple enough but it has me buffaloed.

I have a field defined as an L-date field.  In normal use it has a date of this 
year, next year, or is empty.  It's empty state is 01-01-0001.  

I want to move that field onto a screen in the *MDY format.  So, I do a move to 
a 6/0 field, whichnormally works, but fails on the 1/1/1 because 1/1/1 is 
outside the 1940 to 2040 window.

So how do I overcome the problem, or test for it?  

Mt first idea was that the MOVE opcode for dates must have an error code, but I 
can't find that to be true.
