Hi everyone, anyone can help me with this?;

I I have got the dataset have, and I want to convert it in a dataset want , please find below *;

data have;

input subjid siteid param $ response $;

datalines;

1 100 u a

1 100 v a

1 100 w a

1 100 u b

1 100 v b

1 100 w b

2 200 u a

2 200 v a

2 200 w a

3 300 u a

3 300 v a

3 300 u b

3 300 v b

Can you provide your want structure as a data step as well. It's hard to visualize how you want it. Also, is this to be displayed or in a dataset? What should the blanks be?

It an't pretty, but seems does what you want.

data have;

input subjid siteid param $ response $;

datalines;

1 100 u a

1 100 v a

1 100 w a

1 100 u b

1 100 v b

1 100 w b

2 200 u a

2 200 v a

2 200 w a

3 300 u a

3 300 v a

3 300 w a

3 300 u b

3 300 v b

3 300 w b

;

run;

data want;

do until (last.siteid);

set have;

by siteid;

length site response_a response_b $20.;

site=catx(' ','site',siteid);

response_b=ifc(response='b',catx(' ',response_b,param), response_b);

end;

do _n_=1 by 1 until (last.siteid);

set have;

by siteid;

if _n_>1 then call missing (site,response_b);

response_a=ifc(response='a',param,'');

if not missing(response_a) then output;

end;

keep site response_:;

run;

Hi Haikuo,

please , could you supply the function ifc for another line of code to see if you generate the right dataset?,

because IFC does not work in my 9.0 SAS version.

Thanks,

Jose.
