Re: Create command with Date parameter that allows *CURRENT special value

["Charles Wilt" <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Elvis,

That doesn't appear to work.

The command won't compile.  I've seen two different errors depending
on what I try.  CPD0271 - Special value not valid or CPD0257 - value
not a valid date.

I'm having the same problem on a time parameter, but with that one
I've only ever seen CPD0271.
