Michelle:

The first thing I would recommend that you do is compare apples with apples. Besides, what day of the month is '1_' and how can you keep that one?

Regardless, you are comparing a two-byte char field out of SUBSTR with a number and making MLoad do a conversion. If you are comparing wouldn't a better comparison be BETWEEN '01' and '31' for day and '01' and '12' for month?
