Subject: st: how create a year variable



Dear all,

I'm working on a panel of administrative data of employment episodes. I have a variable in mdy format (%dD/N/CY) that gives me the beginning of each job spells. I need to use panel routine in Stata and so I would like to know if it's possible to extract from this variable the year to generate a year variable for each observation and how to do this. What commands I have to digit?
