data std;
input id no sdate date9.;
format sdate date9.;
cards;
2 4 19JAN2012
3 5 19JAN2012
4 6 19JAN2012
5 7 19JAN2012
6 8 19JAN2012
;
run;


data change;
input id no sdate date9.;
format sdate date9.;
cards;
2 4 20JAN2012
3 5 20JAN2012
4 6 20JAN2012
5 9 20JAN2012
6 10 20JAN2012
7 11 20JAN2012
8 12 20JAN2012
;
run;
proc sql;
create table temp as
 select *
  from change
   where id not in (select distinct id from std) or  no not in (select distinct no from std) ;

create table want as
 select * from std
 union all corresponding
 select * from temp;

create table keep_change as
 select a.*, b.sdate as endadte
  from std as a,temp as b
