Hello,

 

I am looking to use an INTNX statement in order to capture the month end date of a value, however I do not have a 'date' field that would normally be entered in the INTNX statement. What I do have is a column listing the numeric value of a month (i.e. 5 if it's May), and a 2nd column listing the numeric value of the year (i.e. 2016).

 

Any recommendations as to the fastest way to use the '5' and '2016' values to end up with a 05/31/2016 format?

 

Thanks!

Assuming your month and year values are numeric, here's a phrase you could enter wherever INTNX is expecting to see a date:

 

mdy(month, 1, year)

So that would be:

 

lastDayOfMonth = intnx("MONTH", mdy(month, 1, year), 0, "END");
format lastDayOfMonth mmddyy10.;

Hello PGStats,



Thank you for your response, it works perfectly! Thanks for helping me learn (I never used the MDY function).



Greatly appreciated!
