Specify the format of the date that you're moving in. If you don't specify 
one, it assumes that they are *ISO.

Remember:  You don't have to worry about the Date-Data-Type fields (the 
"type L" fields) because the system KNOWS what format those are.  However, 
it doesn't know what format your character strings are. So THAT'S What you 
need to tell it:

  C     *USA/         MOVE      DMYSDATE      PRTSTARTD
  C     *USA/         MOVE      DMYEDATE      PRTENDD

I didn't test this -- but I think *USA/ is the correct format when the 
date is 'mm/dd/yyyy'.
