Hello,
I am trying to input some dates using input datatement. Here is raw data:
Date
12/10/2014
1/1/2015
9/30/2015
As you can see, the date could be any length(10, 9, or 8), and as a result, mmddyy8. or mmddyy10. will not work.
Is there a way to input such mixed formated dates?
data junk;
informat date mmddyy.;
input date;
format date mmddyy10.;
