  "DFHRESP"
  
  The MOVE statement is fine and the code compiles correctly
  
             MOVE dfhvalue(rfc3339) TO ws-cvda
  
             EXEC CICS FORMATTIME ABSTIME (ws-abstime)
                       YYYYMMDD(ws-date)
                       TIME (ws-time)
                       datestring(ws-iso-date)
