I have 2 data sets Table1 and Table2. They have the same 3 variables Var1, Var2 and Var 3. There is no special sorting order of the 3 variables.

Table1 contains 11 records. Table2 contains only 1 record. I want to make one new table with all the 12 records.

The record from Table2 should be placed as record number 4 in the new data set, so records 1 - 3 comes from Table1:s records with the same number and records 5 - 12 should come fromTable1:s records 4 - 11.

That must be possible to create?

data table0;
set table1(obs=3) table2 table1(firstobs=4);

And another way to do the same thing.

data table0;
set table1;
output;
/* _N_ holds the current obs number */
if _N_ eq 3 then
do until (_EOF); /* _EOF checks the end of the table2 dataset */
set table2 end = _EOF;
output;
end;
run;

caution, both solutions will totally insert table2 (every row) at row 3 in table1.
