No.
In Stata 10, try "DMY".
Rajesh Tharyan
The command gen adate=date(date,"dmy"), where date is a string variable
works fine in stata9
However, it generates missing values in stata10.
The format of the date is
. describe date
storage display value
variable name type format label variable label
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

date str10 %10s Date
is this because the variable is named date?
