Hi All,

How to convert date in YYYYMMDD format to DD-MMM-YYYY format in SAS?

Also how to prevent zero suppression in SAS?
i.e. iam getting o/p as

' 11111'

but i need it as
'0000011111'

Assuming your date field is stored as a SAS internal numeric,
format datevar date9.;
where datevar is the data variable you want to format;

format leadzero z10.;
where leadzero is the numeric variable you want to have leading zero's on.
