Need more context for what you're trying to do with the dataset. Are you printing it? Creating another dataset?

drop ex: ;

OK, then you would do like @Patrick indicated.

data results.nomatch09;
    set results.nomatch08;
    drop ex: ;
run;

/* or */

data results.nomatch09;
    set results.nomatch08 (drop=ex: );
run;
