Am trying to create unique row values depending on a numeric value. like If x=6, create 6 unique rows in a dataset. Any help is appreciated.
Have you tried something simple and direct like:
data want;
set have;
do rownum=1 to x;
output;
end;
run;

It would help to provide some example of what other values may be involved.
Basically
Data want;
x=6;
do i=1 to x;
output;
end;
run;
will generate a given number of additional records based on the value of a variable. If the Variable X is a data set and is used on a SET statement then you will get additional records with the same values for all the other variables (except i).
