Hi,
I wonder how to convert char into date. I have a variable 'DATE' in character format like below
DATE
2020.06
I need to convert this to 2020-06 in date format
I've tried input(t1.DATA,YYMMd.) hopeless what I got is '13JUL1965'
Can you help me with solution?
data want;
chardate='2020.06';
numdate=input(compress(chardate,'.'),yymmn6.);
format numdate yymmd8.;
run;
