Hi,
I want to import a date-column that contains the year (yyyy). How is it possible, to import this data with a date format instead of this char-format? Thank you for helping me!
data test;
FORMAT
year $CHAR22.;
input year ;
datalines;
[...]
Just remove the FORMAT statement. SAS will automatically read this as numeric. To make a SAS date value out of it, you have to use the MDY function and decide which day of the year you want to assume.
