I tried, there are apparently some records with values that do not represent dates. Sure I can request to have them removed. But I'll worry about that when I actually want to move to production.

Subject: RE: Derived Index V6R1
Michael,
Why all the gyrations? Why not just create a date data type in the index in the format you want? This is easy for me to say as we are still on V5R4 so I don't get to use derived indexes yet. Only one or two more weeks though.
Given that you could create your derived index as a date data type then your select would simply need a date data type or date formatted constant for comparison.
