I'm attempting to create a data subset containing records where the yearmth date variable is < 201809.
The yearmth date variable is in yymmn6. format (e.g., "202006").
The following code doesn't work - I always forget how to do date comparisons in SAS.
data data2;
set data1;
where yearmth < '201908';
run;
Thanks!
If you date variable is in a SAS date format, you could use a SAS date constant notation:
yearmth < '01Aug2019'd
Be aware of that you need to specify the specific date.
