Yes you can. You have to do the DDS by hand. I usually stick a 6/8 char
field where I want the date then edit the DDS. The result should look
something like:

A                        DATE                    L  B  1  2DATFMT(*MDY)

Data type of "L"

because you can't define a date field only in a DSPF, but you can define a
timestamp.  It's just easy to define a 6, 0 numeric field and apply and
EDIT CODE to it.
