Subject:      How to truncate a variable in SPSS?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I have a date variable (a string) in the following format:
mm/dd/yyyy 0:00:00

I want to get rid of the 0:00:00 at the end of each of my values, because
otherwise it doesn't convert to a date format properly. Any suggestions on
what function I can use to do this? Thanks so much!
