Subject: questions on datetime
I have a current DBF file produced daily from a call monitor system known as
Aspect
this DBF contains a date and time value variable which has values in it like
1059569915 which translates via (data _null_;set;format d datetime.;put d=)
as
29JUL1993:12:58:35
now the question is why is this value 1993 when I know it is for July 29 of
this year or 2003 ?
I know I can manually code for the wrong year value but I wonder why the 4
year difference?
a sample of yesterdays activity shows up as
1060214430 which sas translates to 06AUG93:00:00:30
can't think why the vendor would be off by 4 years? any ideas?
