Hi,
I've the following problem managing date in SAS.
Here you are my code
proc sql;
create table mycalendar as
select distinct (datref - mynumber) as mydatrf format = datetime20.
from Library1.mydataset
;
quit;
Library1 points to a table on Oracle database where the field datref is a date and mynumber is numeric field.
My goal is to have the result of the query as "datetime20." SAS format but if I use the proc above it fails, because for example it the datref is 29/11/2011 and mynumber is -1 I get
29NOV2011:00:00:01 instead of 30NOV2011:00:00:00.Any idea?
Many thanks
Try it with:
proc sql;
create table mycalendar as
select distinct (datref - mynumber*24*60*60) as mydatrf format = datetime20.
from Library1.mydataset
;
quit;
