End of period date as yyyymmdd format

[Crystine]

Hi,

I would like to use wfsave to export series into a csv file with the _date_ as the end date of the period and with the format of yyyymmdd. Is there a way to do it? Please provide some suggestions. Now I use @enddate option but the format is not right. I would like the format to be yyyymmdd. Thank you.

You'll have to create an alpha in the workfile with the format you want, then save that alpha to the csv.

Code: Select all

alpha mydate = @datestr(@enddate, "YYYYMMDD")

Thank you. It works well.
