Hi,
How can I transofm the number 201403 into the date 03/2014 on SAS?
Thank you
There isn't a SAS format for what you want but you can create your own (untested):
proc format;
picture MyDateFmt low-high='%0m/%y' (datatype=date);
run;
data test;
datenum = 201403;
MyDate = input(put(datenum * 100 + 1, 8.), yymmdd8.);
format MyDate MyDateFmt.;
put _all_;
run;
data _null_;
date=201403;
_date=input(put(date,6.),yymmn6.);
format _date mmyys7.;
put _all_;
run;
