Subject | st: How to show formatted date variable in graph |
Date | Mon, 17 Oct 2011 18:48:11 +0100 |
i have a variable for the quarter of the year in which a clinic visit occurred which i have formatted thus: quarter 151 when formatted appears as 1997q4. when i create a table or graph of visits the number 151 appears rather than 1997q4. how to i get 1997q4 into the table and graph. probably simple but i can't thing how, and searching did not help. thanks.
