Hello,

I created the month variable into Stata format from 201509 to 2015m9 using the command:

Code:
gen month = ym(floor(month/100), mod(month,100))
format month %tm
Now, I would like to do the reverse from 2015m9 to 201509. (%tm to numeric)

What would be the command for this? I read the 'date and time' Stata documentation and couldn't find the opposite.

Thank you so much!
