Hi,
I have a dataset with date as text (2016-01-07 01:48:11.000) I want to change it to DATETIME17. format? any help?
Thanks
In a datastep you would want to create a new variable;
data want;
set have;
dt = input(textdate,anydtdtm32.);
format dt datetime17.;
run;
where textdate is the name of your current variable
