SAS dataset gets reduced after code gets executed

[adrfinance]

I have a dataset which initially has more than 8000 rows.

Then when I execute the following SAS code:

rsubmit;
data have2;
set initial_dataset;
/* Since beginning is always equal to 1, I don't use it here in my code */
if /* beginning=1 and */ end=2 then flag=1;
else flag=0;
run;
endrsubmit;

the resulting dataset (have2) only has 10 rows. Why is this the case and how can I fix it?

Can you post the log please? There is nothing in your code that subsets the number of observations.

This could happen if this statement appears anywhere within your code:

options obs=10;

Much less likely, this would cause similar trouble:

options firstobs=7991;

Other than that, we are left with the possibility of investigating the data further to find out if the incoming data set really contains 8000 observations.
