I would like to append 16 datasets having same column and variables name. I would like to do that using macro to stack each table

and create one with new variable having dataset name to distinguish the data in merged table.

 

Please suggest.

 

Example : I have Table Customer and Client having variable as  A ,B,C, D..and soon on.

 

Would like to create one table MERGED

AS data from both table and new variable

A   B      NEW_VARIABLE

1    0      Customer_file

1    0       Client_file

 

So that data can be differentiated based on New_variable.?

I have created this through SQL while calculating percentage difference between two values and displayed in a table.

Use set statement option indsname= 

 

data all;

set A B C D E F G indsname=dsn;

NEW_VARIABLE = dsn;

run;

Yes, The value of the new variable is same as the dataset name. That's why I need to write it in a macro. Please suggest

Sorry, I don't understand the question. The simple code provided concatenates datasets A, B, C etc. and adds NEW_VARIABLE to the resulting dataset with the name of the dataset of origin. Do you mean some other sort of merging operation? Are you asking for a macro variable or macro program?
