When doing a PROC PRINT of data containing
a DATETIMEnn value the default output format looks
like:
21MAY2007:17:37:00
which is a real pain because such text cannot be
sorted by tools outside of SAS.
Is there some way of changing the *DEFAULT* behavior
so the result looks more like:
2007-05-21:17:37:00
I'm not hopeful that this is possible, but if I don't ask ...
