Well, is that a date format?

 Can it be done without concatenating the quotes and d?.



 Your
 question was, what dateformat would return the value in the format
'22Jun2003'd ? with quotes and D, all of it?
                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

rob abelson suggested this and it appears to do the trick
a = "'" ||put( intnx ( 'day', date(), -1), date9. )||"'d";
