. instead of 0 after setting options

sasspan — Thu, 19 Sep 2019 16:49:56 GMT

Hello -

I am using the following -

options missing=0;

I have numeric variables with missing values and at the beginning of the code the missings do change to 0. Then by the final output (with no more options or anything referencing missing values) the values are back to "."

Thanks,

Andrew

Incomplete syntax. You need to indicate the value as a single character:

Options missing = '0';

Wow, I can't believe how easy that was... Thanks man, makes me feel like I should have figured that out 🙂
