Answer / reshma j.
INPUT-DATE has value of 09032010.
In working storage:
01 INPUT-DATE.
03 MM1 PIC 9(2).
03 DD1 PIC 9(2).
03 CCYY1 PIC 9(4).
01 PRINT-DATE.
03 CCYY2 PIC 9(4).
03 DD2 PIC 9(2).
03 MM2 PIC 9(2).
In Procedure Division:
MOVE MM1 TO MM2.
MOVE DD1 TO DD2.
MOVE CCYY1 TO CCYY2.
After Moving values,PRINT-DATE value will be 20100309.
In this cond,Its totally depend on how we declare format in
working storage section.
plz let me know,if i m wrong.

Answer / rajesh
Both the answers are correct. But if we want to use the date
or month or year value alone in somewhere in our program
then we can go with Reshma's explanation.
