SAS VA | Add date variable to title (text object)

MariaD — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 15:33:54 GMT

Hi Folks,

Is there any way to add a variable date to a title (text object)? As I found, I only add measure variables on text object. And I expected to display the month's name on title not the number.

Regards,

Is it possible for you to store the date value in a parameter and then use the parameter in the text object?

Hi @FredrikE. Thanks! If is it possible to store the parameter in automatically way (without human intervention), yes there is no problem.
