I am trying to extract a date variable(eg. 12Jul19) from a variable that date and time (eg. 12Jul19:12:34:00).
I have tried this code but it is not working .
DATA Mydata2;
SET Mydata;
date = MDY(Arrival);
RUN;
I sincerely appreciate your help.
Thank you.
Have you tried:
DATA Mydata2;
SET Mydata;
date = datepart(Arrival);
format date date9.;
RUN;
