Hi Ken,

One of several approachs: this one takes
advantage of the DO loop incrementing by 1
and merely pushing the date to the end of
the month right before the DO loop increments.



data _null_;
    format firstofmonth date9.;
    do firstofmonth = '1DEC2005'd to '1FEB2007'd;
        put firstofmonth=;


        * your stuff here ;


        firstofmonth = intnx('month',firstofmonth,0,'e');
    end;
run;





Hope this is helpful.

Subject: Looping Over Dates

I would like to be able to loop over a series of dates, but have the
loop only look at a particular day of the month.  (e.g. 1DEC2006,
1JAN2007, 1FEB2007,...)



Is there some relatively uncomplicated way to do this?

Thanks
