The Convert  Time Zone  Description command  converts one, generic,  or
all  time zone  descriptions to  an outfile.    This provides  a simple
method  of  processing  time zone  information.   The  outfile  name is
always TIMZONP.   The  model file  is TAATIMZP  with a  format name  of
TIMZONR.

A typical command would be:

            CVTTIMZOND     TIMZON(*ALL) OUTLIB(QTEMP)

All Time  Zone Descriptions would  be converted to the  TIMZONP outfile
in QTEMP.

Command parameters                                    *CMD
------------------

   TIMZON        The  time zone description to be  converted.  A single
                 time zone  description, a  generic name,  or *ALL  for
                 all time zone descriptions may be entered.

   OUTLIB        The  library  in  which   the  file  TIMZONP  will  be
                 placed.   The default is  *LIBL.  If  the TIMZONP file
                 does not already exist, a library must be named.

   OUTMBR        The member  of  the TIMZONP  file  to be  used.    The
                 default is TIMZONP.   If the member does not  exist it
                 is added.

   REPLACE       A  *YES/*NO value  for  whether the  member  should be
                 cleared  before writing records into  it.  The default
                 is *YES.

                 *NO may be  specified to add  records to any  existing
                 data.
