Calcite | Level 5

I have 2 files that look like this:

 

CustID ContactID

1              1

1              2

1              3

 

CustID PlanID

1             A

1             B

1             C

 

I need to merge them in base SAS so I get the following:

 

CustID ContcatID PlanID

1                1             A

1                1             B

1                1             C

1                2             A

1                2             B

1                2             C

1                3             A

1                3             B

1                3             C

You can also use "inner join" or "left join" clauses with proc sql
