st: Re: Getting end of month
No, but it's a fairly simple calculation, just subtract 1 day from the first
of the next month and make sure to deal with December dates:
gen newdate=mdy( month(date)+1,1,year(date))-1
replace newdate=mdy(12,31,year(date)) if month(date)==12
It could be done in a single line by combining these using cond()

Subject: st: Getting end of month
Hi everyone,
I'm converting a set of dates to the end of the respective month, for
instance:
20Jan91 -> 31Jan91
10Mar05 -> 30Mar05
Etc.
Does anyone knows a function in Stata that does this automatically?
