Hi, Im using SAS University Studio 3.4, after 10 years of not using it.
The snippets Filter doesnt allow to delete or filter out data line base on the sas created obs#
I wish to use a simple data net set old if then delete statement but using the OBS# as the criteria
Can somoene pls give me the code I need for that?
THANKS!
Its a comparison operator - NE - Not Equal

I believe you could do something like this to delete observation #1. _n_ is an automatically generated variable in data steps that's dropped from the output.
data newtable;
set oldtable;
if _n_ ne 1;
run;

"Not equal to", scroll to comparison operators
