Hi,
I am trying to find if date variable is greater than surgery variable by 35days
both are dates.
is this below code right??????
data want;
set have;
if date ge (Surgery - 60*60*24*35);
run;
Thanks
That would work if your values were datetime, not date. Date formats are stored as the number of days since a fixed date (01/01/1960) so you'd simply need to substract 35.
It is typically best to get accustomed to the intnx function though for date distance. I'll let you look that up.
