Post test data in the form of a datastep!!!

 

As such this is just assuming that those are dates:

data want;
  set have;
  indicator=ifn(start_date <= worked_date <= end_date,1,0);
run;

I dont understand this question. In none of your records do Worked_Date fall between Start_Date and End_Date? What do you want the new column to contain?

Well, just see of if work date date falls between start and end dates, and assign a indicator value of the comparison result. What part is it you don't know how to do? What have you tried so far?
