Hi,
I am looking for the code for the same date last month i.e
eg. 10APR2018 last month= 10MAR2018
11APR2018 last month= 11MAR2018.
similarly for next day.
as i want to keep both the dates in single variable.
Thanks
Use the INTNX function like this
data dates;
date='10apr2018'd;
datelastmonth=intnx('month', date, -1, 's');
format date: date9.;
run;

Then you don't have a date-variable anymore and working with the variable will be troublesome.
This is not possible, you can either have:
A numeric variable with a date
A text variable with both dates converted to text and concatenated
