Dear all,
I have monthly dates in excel in the following form:
200601
200602
200603
200604
...
I upload it in Stata and it appears numeric. I have tried a few options with the date command - but I was unsuccessful in converting the variable in the correct formt (mmyyy).
Could you help me on that?
Many thanks,
Rado
