Hello,
I have a variable in the following numeric format (representing
quarters of the year) [already in a SAS data set]:
198401
198402
198403
198404
198501
...
I would like to convert this to SAS dates, so that then I could use
this variable in the proc x11, to adjust for seasonality as follows (I
need to convert the above to the newSASdatevar I refer to below):
proc x11 data = mydata;
quarterly date = newSASdatevar;
var myvar;
tables d11;
run;
Thank you very much for any tips you may have,
Matt
P.S. Thanks for the help on my last inquiry.
