Hello, hoping someone here can help. I think I'm missing something deceptively simple and obvious in my if-then statement. In short, I want to delete all observations outside of a specified range (e.g. 'value' ge 'varA' ge value;) dependent upon the conditions of another variable (varB = '2', for instance). I think I'm close, but I've wasted two days trying to get it to work to no avail. Can someone help?
Try this:
data class;
set sashelp.class;
if (13 <= age <= 15) and sex='F' then delete;
run;
Thanks for the suggestion. It didn't work for my particular purposes but I figured out something that did. Here's the code in case anyone's interested:
proc sql;
delete from lib.dataset
where varA not between 'value' and 'value' and varB eq value;
quit;
