I previously posted this message with an inappropriate subject line. Here
it is again.
Quick question.
I have a numeric variable (float) of the form: 19460515
The variable actually refers to the date, May 15, 1946. Truncating and
concatenating functions appear to operate only on string variables. What
approach can I use to change this to the correct date?
Thanks.
