Hi all,

I need to populate a column in a data set that starts at midnight '00:00't and increments in 15 minute intervals. 00:00, 00:15, 00:30, 00:45 out to 23:45.  I've been working with INTNX but all I get is a repeated time of 00:15.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks!

data work.rtspp_with_time;

set work.rtspp;

INTDATE  = intnx('dtminute', '00:00:00't, 15);

format INTDATE HHMM.;

run;

Steve

You need a loop

For example: (Untested code), where the value of "something" is an integer left as a homework assignment for you to figure out

data work.rtspp_with_time;

do loop=15 to something by 15;
INTDATE  = intnx('dtminute', '00:00:00't, loop); output;
end;
format INTDATE HHMM.;

run;
