I am working with Stata 9.2 and I need to get today's day, month and year.

(I want the compiled [Mata] code to access current date, not the date when it was compiled).

: stata("version")
version 9.2

: printf("%d", date(st_global("c(current_date)"),"dmy"))
22aug2007
: day(date(st_global("c(current_date)"),"dmy"))
  22

: month(date(st_global("c(current_date)"),"dmy"))
  8

: year(date(st_global("c(current_date)"),"dmy"))
  2007
