I had to implement this fix:
tmp=put(&from.,NORDFWDX.); from = tranwrd(tmp,'201','2019');
Nasty code, and won't work for 2020, but it works for my case (which is to export to csv)
May be better use the picture format as already proposed by @unison
proc format;
picture mydate(default=18)
other='%d. %B %Y'(language=Norwegian datatype=date)
;
run;
data datotest;
sep= "15SEP2019"d;
feb= "15FEB2019"d;
to = today();
format sep feb to mydate.;
output;
stop;
run;
proc print;
run;
This looks like a bug, but I can't find this format documented anywhere. Where did you hear of it?
