Use the data step with arrays, do-loop and explicit output.

Search support.sas.com for "transposing data set" - there are plenty of examples and doc around this topic.

Data never sleeps

How about this:

data want (keep=case_ID member age sex dob);

set have;

array members{*} member1-member4;

array ages{*} age1-age4;

array sexs{*} sex1-sex4;

array dobs{*} dob1-dob4;

do i = 1 to 4;

  if members{i} ne .

  then do;

    member = members{i};

    age = ages{i};

    sex = sexs{i};

    dob = dobs{i};

    output;

  end;

end;

run;

the above data is my raw data which i have.

But i want  format like this

there are variables in the above data is BIDX_01 BIDX_02  BIDX_03 BIDX_04

and B0_01---B10_1  and B0_02---- B10_02

so i need to arrange data like

Case_ID     BIDX     B1     B2     B3     B4

101              1          1       1       1        1

102              3          2       4        2       1

i mean the variables instead of side by side i need to bring one below the another.

Thanks and Regards,

Anil

Well, one way to do it would be to do the following - note that if you have lots of combinations, then pop the sql in a macro and call it each time, or generate the code using call execute.:

proc sql;

     create table WANT as

     select     CASEID,

                    BIDX_01 as BIDx,

                    B0_1 as B1,

                    B0_2 as B2,

                    ...

     from        HAVE

     union all

     select     CASEID,

                    BIDX_02 as BIDX,

                    B0_2 as B1,

                    ...

     from       HAVE

     union all

     ...

quit;

Dear Ksharp,

It's working now thanks a lot for your idea. but my raw data is in SAS 6 version files so its wont work in SAS 9.3 so i need to migrate and transpose. the datasets memory is in GB's i don't know how to process this data.

Thanks a lot once again....

Regards,

Anil

SAS can automatically deal with older dataset formats. Just read the inputs and write the new data to another library that contains 9.3 data.

Of course you WILL need enough disk space anyway.
