Hello all,

I would like to run the following two programs with a macro. Can somebody help me.

I need to run it for different cases (from 1 to 10), and what I need to vary from 1 to 10 are specified below.

I have basic knowledge in macros, and I appreciate your help.

Thanks


data sample1; /*sample1 to sample10*/
set sample;
if id_case=1; /*case1 to case10*/
run;

data Control;
merge Control1 /*control1 to control10*/
Sample1 ; /*sample1 to sample10*/
by ID_case;
run;

Not tested:

%macro MergeCtrlSmpl;
%do case=1 %to 10;
data CTRL_&case;
merge Control&case
Sample&case (where=(id_case=&case)) ;
by ID_case;
run;

proc append base=control data=CTRL_&case force;
run;
%end;
%mend;

%MergeCtrlSmpl;

Perfect, thank you very much.
It works fine.
Take care

Hi Hani

Below code for SAS9.2 would allow you to get your desired result without the use of macro code at all (which I believe is always preferable):


data control;
merge sample(where=(id_case GE 1 and id_case LE 10))
control1 - control10;
by id_case;
run;

Hello Patrick,

Thanks for the suggestion, I will run it as well. I prefer not to use macros as I am not very comfortable with it.. I hope this will work as well.

Thanks
