From now on, make the subject line a short but meaningful description of your SAS problem. Phrases like "Doubt" "Need Help" "Don't Understand" are not acceptable as they don't help anyone find topics of interest.</P> Mon, 12 Apr 2021 10:57:52 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/New-SAS-User/doubt/m-p/732986#M28519 PaigeMiller 2021-04-12T10:57:52Z Re: doubt https://communities.sas.com/t5/New-SAS-User/doubt/m-p/733256#M28550 <P>I'll follow your advice</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 13 Apr 2021 10:53:25 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/New-SAS-User/doubt/m-p/733256#M28550 Pooja98 2021-04-13T10:53:25Z
