Date of last observation

I can't seem to figure out how to change the workfile range to the date of the last observation of a series. For example,
pagestruct(end=@now)

But instead of @now which gives todays date, I want the date of the last observation of a series "xyz"

Any ideas?

Thanks

Code: Select all

%end = xyz.@last pagestruct(end={%end})

How could I create a "start" date using a similar method by referencing the date 24 months prior to the last observation - for creating a sample instead of pagestruct?

Code: Select all

%end = xyz.@last %start = @datestr(@dateadd(@dateval(%end), -24, "M")) smpl {%start} {%end}
