Subject:      Failure in Month and Year Functions (invalid argument)

I'm running PC SAS v8.02. Have two statements that says:

THISMNTH=MONTH(ADM_DATE);
THISYEAR=YEAR(ADM_DATE);

I get an errors every time they execute -- Invalid argument to function
MONTH and Invalid argument to function YEAR.

From the log I can see two example values that fail:
ADM_DATE = 26FEB2002:22:13:20
ADM_DATE = 29MAR2002:06:24:00

Can anyone see why it's failing. Feel as though I'm missing something
obvious, but I just can't figure it out. Any help would be
appreciated...Gigi
