    <description>Hello,&lt;BR /&gt;
is there a way to create the following format ?&lt;BR /&gt;
i want to obtain the display of my date like that: 12 july 1998, put i want also that my variable, if possible stay numeric (no creation of a character variable)&lt;BR /&gt;
to quote an example, i try this:&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt;
data world_cup_france;&lt;BR /&gt;
format date_n date11.;&lt;BR /&gt;
date_n=14072;&lt;BR /&gt;
run;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt;
and now, is there a way to create the format that i want by coding by a proc format ( changing the - into blank)&lt;BR /&gt;
changing FEB into February and the equivalent for the others months&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt;
Thank you for yours answers and really sorry for all the irish people</description>
