Hi,
I am trying to convert a numeric year to a character year field.
put(VW_client_Social.BroadCastYear,yyyy4.) aS BroadCastYear_chr
works just fine in SAS EG but when I try the same expression in VA 7.1 , I get this error -
ERROR: The format YYYY was not found or could not be loaded.
ERROR: Character expression requires a character format.

Thanks,
saspert.
if I change yyyy4. to year4, Sas eg runs fine but returns 1965 as the output
while SAS VA gives the below error -
ERROR: Character expression requires a character format.
