Since you've already run what you want, you can do the other the same way:

data dontwant;

  set have (where=(strip(product) eq "0"));

run;

Of course, if you wanted to do it all in one step:

data want dontwant;

  set have;

  if strip(product) eq "0" then output dontwant;

  else output want;

run;

There are a number or ways and it will depend upon the type of field, etc.  I'm going to guess that it is a character field and you can get away with something as simple as:

data want;

  set have (where=(strip(product) ne "0"));

run;
