Hello: Can someone help explain to me why this codeset returns a value of 19, instead of 9? For some reason, it's not applying my where clause as I'd expect.
%let dsid = %sysfunc(open(sashelp.class (where=(Sex="F"))));
%let Gender_NOBS =%sysfunc(attrn(&dsid,NOBS));
%let rc = %sysfunc(close(&dsid));
%put Gender Count = &Gender_NOBS;
Thanks!
From online doc:
specifies the number of physical observations (including the observations that are marked for deletion). An active WHERE clause does not affect this number.

I've attached a macro I use to determine the number of observations for various scenarios. Perhaps you'll find it useful. You'll have to modify it to remove the call to %parmv.
