Nat - That works perfectly, even in EG!

Thank you

Mike

I don't use EG so I can't help you there but the classic solution is to use the MDY function

Sasdate=MDY(month,day,year);

Note that there is a similar function DHMS which converts a SAS date value plus hour, min, and seconds into a SAS datetime value.

Good morning SASers!

I would be indebted if someone could help me with a really simple task (for you, not me)! I've got 3 numeric variables (month, day, year) and I want to join them to create a single SAS date. Ideally, I would like to do this inside Eguide, but I'll take whatever help I can get at this point.

Thank you very much.

Mike
