Hi. Can I format an existing SAS Date variable to a format that looks like MON-YYYY (e.g. MAR-2020)?
If you can help I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
Like this?
data test;
date = today();
format date monyy7.;
run;
@ChrisNZ said it..
proc format;
picture dtfmt (default=8)
other = '%b-%Y' (datatype=date)
;
run;
data test;
date = today();
format date dtfmt.;
run;
