Creating 1 pdb from multiple:
DATA PDB1;
SET PDBA
SET PDBB
SET PDBC
SET PDBD
SET PDBE;
Is there a way to create and set a single variable with a value to distinguish each SET pdb?
PDB=A for all observations from PDBA, so on and so on.....
Jeff
Do you mean:
SET PDBA;
SET PDBB;
SET PDBC;
SET PDBD;
SET PDBE;
or
SET PDBA
PDBB
PDBC
PDBD
PDBE;
As written I would expect error messages about not finding the dataset SET.
Hi,
If you are going to append the data by using single SET statement, than you can use IN = option to identify the observations...But make sure that you are appending not one - to - one reading by using multiple SET statemsnts...
data test;
set pdbA(in = a)
pdbB(in = b)
pdbC(in = c)
.....and so on;
if a then pdb = "A";
if b then pdb = "B";
if c then pdb = "C";
.....and so on;
run;
Make sure you are going to append the datasets rather than one to one reading (Merging)...
