When breaking on a value such as a date, it is frequently desirable to include the date in the heading rather than display it for every record listed. This would normally be achieved using a syntax similar to

     LIST TIME_SHEETS BY DATE BREAK-ON DATE "'B'" HEADING "'B'"

Unfortunately this results in the date in INTERNAL format being displayed in the heading. To get round thus create a symbolic dictionary item (eg DS) with a display length of 0 and a formula similar to

and change the list statement to be

     LIST TIME_SHEETS BY DATE BREAK-ON DS "'B'" HEADING "'B'"
