Case date input

[Sea, Carleton, VBAVACO]

I have a dataset with 1.5M cases.  I created a date variable and was wondering if there was a way to input a specific date for all 1.5M cases.

Would appreciate your assistance.

V/r,

Carleton

Do you mean...you want the same date for all 1.5m cases?

If so....

compute datevar=date.mdy(03,04,2000).
