There is a field containing a date. It needs to be
displayed in the format
"ddmonyy" if it's before 1975,
"dd mon ccyy" if it's after 1985, and
as 'Disco Years' if it's between 1975 and 1985.
How would you accomplish this in data step code? Using
only PROC FORMAT

Answer / amit gupta
Apologies,
above code has an extra "FROM d1"
The working code is as below:
proc sql;
select
case when date lt '31DEC2006'd then date end as mydate
format=date7. ,
case when date gt '31DEC2008'd then date end as mydate
format=date9. ,
case when '01JAN2007'd <= date <= '31DEC2008'd then 'DUMMY'
end as mydate
from d1 ;
quit;
However it does give the data in 3 columns , which I was
unable to merge as the data type was different.
Any working solution using format ?

Answer / amit gupta
proc sql;
select
case when date lt '31DEC2006'd then date end as mydate
format=date7. from d1
case when date gt '31DEC2008'd then date end as mydate
format=date9. ,
case when '01JAN2007'd <= date <= '31DEC2008'd then 'DUMMY'
end as mydate
from d1 ;
quit;
Just that these are in three different columns;
Tried the above resolutions but unsuccessfully.

How to sort in descending order?
What is Transaction...? And what are Comment, Roll back n Save point..?
Dear all, proc means data=dsn noprint completetypes; class trtmntgroup /preloadfmt; output out=tot n=n; format trtmntgroup trtf. ; by vstgrp descending severity; run; This is the code I used for AE table. I got the values without giving the variable ‘trtmntgroup(numeric)’ in var statement. And if I give the var statement for that variable i’m getting the same values.How is that possible? What is the difference between class and var statement? Could any one explain me how does proc means work at the back end. And what is the difference between _freq_ value and N value in proc means. Thanks and regards, Rajesh.
