Dear,

 

This is a simple question I just want to know if i can do this way.

I know how to get the output I need, but below code is not working when I try.  Can't i output two data sets from proc sort procedure. Thank you

It depends. There are multiple output options but it's not clear what you're trying to do here, sort multiple data sets at once or duplicate the same data set or identify duplicates/unique records.

Ok. Thank you. Here, I am trying for same data sets. I used dupout option for duplicates.

 

Both two and three are same datasets.

Ok, then that's not possible within PROC SORT.
