Hi,

I didn’t get any solution from this site what I expected

Maybe this link will help :-

This takes you through using SDA to create display files.

    Hi Mohan, It has been a while since a do not use SDA, but I remember that it did not support date/time/timestamp fields. I do not know if importing PF fields into SDA solves the problem (I kind of remember it does not, it just changed the field type to a zoned equivalent) but if not, you can generate the DDS file anyway and then change the definition for those fields through SEU. At the end, the line should be like this: A PF_FIELD L 6 63DATFMT(date-format) I hope this helps, Gerardo.
