Does anyone know how to save a formatted datetime variable for Stata using the SAVASTATA macro?

I have no problem with date variables.

I don't see that format in the program, but I might be overlooking it.

Or if someone knows another way to convert a SAS dataset into Stata with formats, I would be very grateful!

Try PROC EXPORT. STATA support was added in SAS 9.1.3 and enhanced in 9.2.

Thanks for your suggestion, but it doesn't work for me in SAS 9.1. It says DBMS=DTA not valid for export.
