This example demonstrates the three formats available using the &FULLDT GPA.

   DELIM/' '
   &FULLDT = 0
   print/'&FULLDT = ',&FULLDT
   print/'DATE = '+DATE
   print/' '
   &FULLDT = 1
   print/'&FULLDT = ',&FULLDT
   print/'DATE = '+DATE
   print/' '
   &FULLDT = 2
   print/'&FULLDT = ',&FULLDT
   print/'DATE = '+DATE
   HALT

The program produces the following results:

   &FULLDT = .0000
   DATE = 08--21--98
   &FULLDT = 1.0000
   DATE = 08--21--1998
   &FULLDT = 2.0000
   DATE = 08-21-1998
