Hi

I want to make an annual workpage starting in the first year of the quarterly workpage and ending in the last year of the same quarterly workpage.

The following code works:

Code: Select all

	genr _auxyear=@year 'lager hjelpeserie
	%first = @left(_auxyear.@first,4) 
	%last = @left(_auxyear.@last,4)
	pagecreate(page=a) a {%first} {%last}

but is not efficient. How can this be done in a better way (without creating the auxiliary series)?

You can create an annual page specifying the dates including quarters, so, if you can do something as simple as:

Code: Select all


smpl @all
%dates = @pagesmpl
pagecreate a {%dates}
