I am trying to use a date '01/01/31' (ymd format)  and add 1 to it.  The
problem is MPEX takes my date and converts it to mmddyy format.  How do I
get around this?

here's my test:

%setlvar endate dateparse('01/01/31','YMD')

%SHOWLVAR

ENDATE = 01/01/31

SETLVAR start_date !endate+1

%showlvar

ENDATE = 01/01/31

START_DATE = 31/01/02
