import multuple data using macro

ffgsdf — Wed, 30 Dec 2015 11:07:09 GMT

Hi, every body.

I have wrote a SAS macro to import multiple data with dat format, but the variable and position have a little differnece.

The data is separeted by each year and has three kind of format.

So, I created a macro variable according to the "year" and the input statement changed with different year.

The following code is my syntax, however, i found that something wrong.

The data imported to my computer is correct one, but the input statement is all the ways according to the first one, which is between 1996 and 2003.

please correct my syntax and help me out.

%macro a(star,myvar);

%do i = &star %to &myvar;

%if 1996 <= &i <=2003 %then %do;

Re: import multuple data using macro

Using MLOGIC is key when debugging macros:

MLOGIC(A): %DO loop beginning; index variable I; start value is 2011; stop value is 2012; by
value is 1.
MLOGIC(A): %IF condition 1996 <= &i <=2003 is TRUE

Unfortunately, %if doesn't work the exact way as normal if.

Changing to:

%if 1996 <= &i and &i <=2003 %then %do;

will probably fix your problem.

Another tip: you can simplyfy your code by just doing the %if around the input statement . The other code parts looks exactly the same (I could have missed something 🙂 )
