Hi,

 

is there a way to import a datetime format from a csv file as a date9 variable?  For example:

 

data have;
input Date_Time_Partial;
informat Date_Time_Partial anydtdtm40. ;
format Date_Time_Partial DATE9. ;

datalines;
11SEP18:00:00:00
;
run;

 

 

When I run the program above, I get a result of *********

Is it possible to get the output of 11Sep2018 within this step?
