Hello,
How to select the people less than 5 days in the 'Birthdate' column? For example, 02/25/2020 <= 5 days.
Please always provide some sample data in the form of a SAS datastep.
Below should give you the idea.
data have;
input birthdate :date9.;
format birthdate date9.;
datalines;
01feb2000
20feb2001
27feb2002
05mar2003
;
data want;
set have;
_yearShift=intck('year',birthdate,today());
_birthdate=intnx('year',birthdate,_yearShift,'s');
format _birthdate date9.;
diff=today()-_birthdate;
/* if abs(diff)<=5 then output;*/
run;
proc print;
run;
