INPUT-DATE has value of 09032010.

In working storage:
01 INPUT-DATE.
03 MM1 PIC 9(2).
03 DD1 PIC 9(2).
03 CCYY1 PIC 9(4).

01 PRINT-DATE.
03 CCYY2 PIC 9(4).
03 DD2 PIC 9(2).
03 MM2 PIC 9(2).

In Procedure Division:

MOVE MM1 TO MM2.
MOVE DD1 TO DD2.
MOVE CCYY1 TO CCYY2.

After Moving values,PRINT-DATE value will be 20100309.
In this cond,Its totally depend on how we declare format in

Answer / rajesh

Both the answers are correct. But if we want to use the date
