Below code snippet will give you generation creation date
| Code: |
lvl="MY.GDG.BASE.BKP(0)"
"ISPEXEC LMDINIT LISTID(TMPID) LEVEL("LVL")"
I=0
Do Forever
"ISPEXEC LMDLIST LISTID("TMPID") OPTION(LIST) DATASET(DSVAR) STATS(YES)"
If rc = 0 Then DO
SAY ZDLCDATE
END
Else Leave
End
"ISPEXEC LMDLIST LISTID("TMPID") OPTION(FREE)"

Hi,
You meant GDG generation here?. Please use correct terminlogy while referring GDG stuffs. Generations and Versions are valid terms with GDG.
LMDLIST is explained here (and in above mentioned thread too). LMDLIST - List Data Sets
This is using LISTDSI.
| Code: |
DS_NAME="'DS_NAME'"
dsinfo=LISTDSI(DS_NAME)
IF DSINFO == 0 THEN
SAY 'Data Set Created :' SYSCREATE
ELSE
DO
SAY DSINFO
SAY 'Data Set Is Not Found!'
END |
Please refer the REXX User Guide & Language Reference by clicking "IBM Manuals" link on top of the page if you need any clarification. |

From your reply it is not clear if there is still a question. . . 
Just so we are all in sync - there is no date recorded that is the "version creation date". |

Perhaps specific to your site? What date would you get with that command? The GDG Generation creation date??? |

Sounds like something site-specific. From which screen/list is the "cd" entered? |
