Hello,
I wanted to create a dataset called timestamps that lists the last day of each month of the preceding 6 months. My solution for this is:
DATA timestamps;
d = today();
format d date9.;
DO i=0 TO 5;
d = intnx('month',d,-i)-1;
output;
END;
run;
DATA timestamps;
d = today();
format d date9.;
d = intnx('month',d,-1)-1;
run;
gives: 31MAY2017At a guess your changing the variable your working on, try:
data timestamps; d = today(); format d dt date9.; do i=0 to 5; dt=intnx('month',d,-i)-1; output; end; run;
At a guess your changing the variable your working on, try:
