Recommend using 28 for day when month = 'Feb' 😉
Dunno what kind of date format your using there is you have YYYY-MON? Basically split it to three parts, make your updates, then put it back together:
data want; set have; yr=scan(thedate,1,"-"); mon=scan(thedate,2,"-"); day=scan(thedate,3,"-"); if mon="" then mon="Jun"; if day="" then day="30"; want_date=input(cats(day,mon,yr),date9.); run;
Recommend using 28 for day when month = 'Feb' 😉
