/RANT ON
Once more let us clarify exactly what JCL is.

it is Job Control Language.

By itself it does nothing. It is used to invoke the chosen program and to define which datasets are to be used by the DD names associated with the chosen program.

JCL does not have magical powers that solve all problems, JCL is merely the vehicule for telling the processor which program you want it to execute.
/RANT OFF
So maybe if you would care to elaborate on exactly which program you wish to execute, then I'm sure some help will be found.

With z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK51706 or z/OS DFSORT V1R10 PTF UK51707 (Nov, 2009), you can use the new date conversion function TOGREG to convert from a Julian date to a Gregorian date.

For complete details on date conversion functions and the other new functions available with the Nov, 2009 DFSORT PTF, see:

arunmozhicholan,

SyncSort for z/OS 1.3, which has been available since August 2007, contains a facility to convert a Julian date field to a printable Gregorian date. If you are a licensed SyncSort for z/OS customer but do not currently have the manuals, please feel free to contact me offline at alissa.margulies@syncsort.com and I would be happy to provide them to you.

Regards,
