Subject:      SAS Date problem

I work in an IBM Mainframe OS390 environment.
I'm reading a 4 byte field that contains a date in binary format ie PIB4. or
PIC 9(8) comp, the date is 020041201 ie CCYYMMDD. I'm trying to convert this
to a SAS date, thus allowing me to use various builtin SAS date functions. I
haven't had any luck doing this, does anybody have any suggestions.

Thanks...
