Comments:
The default delimiter overridden is the delimiter used in by output type parameter specified for the DATE directive, if set. For example, if DATE=USA, the default delimiter is a slash (/).
When using the HCOSS DIALECT directive without the DATE directive, the default delimiter overridden is a dash (-).
