You didn't indicate anything about your data. If they are just date fields and you want to know how many days were in the month represented by the dates you could use something like:

data have;

input havedate date9.;

format havedate date9.;

days_in_month=day(intnx('month',havedate,0,'e'));

cards;

03OCT2012

;

Exactly the same:

data have;

input date mmddyy10.;

format date mmddyy10.;

cards;

01/23/2012

02/04/2012

09/21/2012

;

data want;

set have;

day_at_end_of_month=day(intnx('month',date,0,'e'));

proc print;run;
