I converted the numeric date variable into character variable using this code
proc sql;
create table as date_char as select put (visit_dt,yymmdd10.) as visdate
from stdtelmt merged; quit;
it worked as I wanted but in my new table I only have new variable. how do I get all of the variable I had in the from table? or all of the variable in the previous dataset?
coz you selected only select put (visit_dt,yymmdd10.) as visdate
select *,put (visit_dt,yymmdd10.) as visdate
Select *, NEW VARIABLES go here etc.
coz you selected only select put (visit_dt,yymmdd10.) as visdate
select *,put (visit_dt,yymmdd10.) as visdate
Thank you. You made my day!!!
