Answer / natrajboga
the INTCK function counts the number of intervals between
the two dates
where as INTCX function advances the date or time values
by a given interval and returns a date or time values
for example:
data xxx;
count= intck('week','1aug1998'd,'31aug1998'd);
run;
proc print;run;
the result would be 5 (it represents the no of weeks)
data yyy;
count= intnx('month','1aug1998'd,1);
run;
proc print;run;
the result would be the 1sep1998. becaz it corresponds to
the beginning of the next interval.

Answer / vimal
INTNX not only adds the dates.. it also subtracts..
count= intnx('month','1aug1998'd,-1);
it will subtract one month from 1aug1988 and gives us the output.
