Shelly,

If the date cl variable is numeric, move it (chgvar) to a char variable.
then do this:

chgvar var(&qslt) value('VAR1 *EQ "M" *AND VAR2 *GE ' *CAT &DATE)
OPNQRYF FILE((FNAME)) QRYSLT(&qslt)

you could put the selection code right in the qryslt parm, but I find it
easier to read, understand and maintain when using the variable method.

If you prompt the chgvar command (f4) it will insert extra quotes.  remove
them.

hth,
rick
