The JULDATE7 function returns a seven
digit Julian date from a SAS date value. The first four digits represent the
year, and the next three digits represent the day of the year.

except that JULDATE7 always returns a four digit year. Thus JULDATE7 is year
2000 compliant because it eliminates the need to consider the implications
of a two digit year.
