Exactly ..........

I hate SAS date formats and playing around changing them, but after some little testing .........

DATEXX = PUT(DATEJUL(DATEIN),MMDDYY10.);

Using the DATEJUL function, DATEIN is converted to a SAS base date, and that value is then PUT into the required format.

JULDATE, DATEJUL ... one of them things! I didn't get a chance to test my code since I'm in class this week and not anywhere close to a mainframe. At least the problem got resolved.
