Hi there,
Could anyone help me with this?
I want to merge two datasets together that both have a 'datereturn' variable. They have different formats however. In one it is a %tc and in the other %dD_m_Y.
Where it is %tc format I cannot convert it to a date format...
If I type
format datereturn %dD_m_Y
It displays: 1478563200000
I know this is probably very basic, bu I'd be very grateful for some help...
Thanks a lot!
