Syntax

WORDDATXw.

The WORDDATXw. format writes SAS date values in the form dd month-name, yyyy:

is an integer that represents the day of the month.

yyyy

is a four-digit integer that represents the year.

If the width is too small to write the complete month, SAS abbreviates as necessary.

The WORDDATXw. format is the same as the WORDDATEw. format except that WORDDATEw. prints dd after the month's name.

The example table uses the input value of 19057, which is the SAS date value that corresponds to March 5, 2012.
