As pointed out previously, 33824
is (almost) 8 August 1992 expressed as days after
1 January 1900:
. di mdy(8,8,1992) - mdy(1,1,1900)
33822
In any case, Stata uses an origin
of 1 January 1960, so to adjust
your dates to Stata's origin
I derived the difference between
origins:
. di mdy(1,1,1960) - mdy(1,1,1900)
21914
