Hi all,

I want to merge two data sets in SAS. I want to show by using example:

Group Value
    A       10
    A        8
    A        6
    B        7
    B        9
    B       11

it is my first data set. I have the second dataset as well:

Group Volume
    A       2
    B       3

I want to merge these two data sets. The result should be:

Group Value Volume
    A       10         2
    A       8           2
    A       6           2
    B       7           3
    B       9           3
    B      11          3

I hope, i can explain it. Many thanks.
