Sorry this is a very basic problem. I have a time series covering 1.5 years. The datevar is a string without the corresponding years. And worse the date changes are unequal. Such as:
Code:
03-12 

05-12
To corresponding to “DM” or December 3rd and then the 5th. The last entry is 2019 so I know the first date is: December 3rd, 2018. Ideally I was looking to convert it to standard %td format (12/03/18). But can’t manage to find anything in the Date manuals. The dates don’t change with equal interval, so I can’t create a separate variable without referencing this one.

Apologies, this seems like a simple command fix. Appreciate the help.
