Matching Dates with Visit Names

djbateman — Fri, 03 Jan 2020 19:51:12 GMT

I have a dataset that has a list of visits and dates for each subject along with an anchor visit and a visit window. I want to create a variable that displays the visit date that matches the anchor visit. Below is a subset of my data and my method for getting the anchor date. I can get everything to line up with the Day 1 anchor because Day 1 is found within itself, but I can't get the Day 10 or Day 11 anchors to be detected because there is no match within those anchor subsets. If you run the code below and open the DOV_REFDATE table, you will see what I mean. I just need the REF_DATE column to be fully populated. Any suggestions?

proc sql;
	create table dov (SUBJID char(11), EVENT char(50), EVENTDT char(10), MIN_WINDOW num, MAX_WINDOW num, ANCHOR char(50));
	insert into dov (subjid, event, eventdt, min_window, max_window, anchor)

Does below return what you're after?

proc sql;
  create table dov_refdate as
    select 
      a.*, 
      b.eventdt as ref_date
    from 
      dov a 
      left join 
      dov b
        on 
          a.subjid=b.subjid 
          and a.anchor=b.event
    order by a.subjid, b.eventdt
  ;
quit;

That seems to have done the trick! I knew someone out there would know the solution. It looks like my problem is the subsetting of the second DOV reference where I am specifying that EVENT must equal ANCHOR. Thank you so much for your help!
