Thanks to Michael, Tommy and Johnny for your responses.  Of course you are 
right - figurative constants like *ISO are not the same as '*ISO', I guess 
I was hoping there might be a way around the if ... elseif logic.  I ended 
up doing that after the first compile attempt.

Thanks again,
Adam

The %Date BIF is expecting,  *ISO, *USA, etc...  notice these are not
character strings.  As far as I know you cannot use a variable with the
value of *ISO in the second parameter.   The %Date routine sees '*ISO' 
not
*ISO.
