DTYEARw.

Syntax Description

w
specifies the width of the output field.
Default:4

Details

The DTYEARw. format is similar to the YEARw. format in that they both write date values. The difference is that DTYEARw. expects a datetime value as input, and YEARw. expects a SAS date value.

Example

The example table uses as input the value 1665986932, which is the SAS datetime value that corresponds to October 16, 2012, at 06:08:52 a.m.
