Hi,
I have date format "20190123000000000" in the system and I used
 COMPUTE BATCH_DATE1/MDYY = HDATE(BATCH_DATE, 'MDYY');  AS 'BATCH_DATE' 
the out put I`m getting '1232019', but my requirement is the data format should be "01/23/2019",

This issue is only with CSV format, HTML and EXL07 are doing good


Appreciated any help to change the format.

Thanks,
krishna

Have a look at HCNVRT().

Hi Wep5622,
Thank you for your reply, it is working fine but I`m still getting the time, here is my code
and my output
 COMPUTE  PAYMENT_DATE1/A20 = HCNVRT(PAYMENT_DATE, '(HYYMDS)', 20, 'A20');AS 'PAYMENT_DATE1' 

output: 10/28/2018 12:00:00 AM
I need only date part (10/28/2018) only, how can I control this?

Thanks,
Krishna
