Is it possible to read code block from a table and create a data by using these code blocks as a filter?
Thanks in advance.
data filter_data;
input table_name $6. filter $30. ;
DATALINES;
Table1 Count>=3 and date="03feb2021"d
Table2 sum>=100 and count<50
;
RUN;
%macro create(table,filter);
proc sql;
create &table. as select
id,
count(distinct x) as x,
sum(y) as y,
count(z) as z
from sample
where &filter. /* %put &filter */
group by id;
quit;
%mend;
data _null_;
set filter_data;
CALL EXECUTE("%create("||table_name||","||filter||");");
run;
Yes. But how do you know what filters to apply when?
Some different approaches are presented in the thread How to do a dynamic condition based on variable value.
Maybe something like
data filter;
length source $ 42 filter $ 100;
infile datalines delimiter='#' dsd;
input source filter;
datalines;
sashelp.class#11 <= Age <= 13
;
data _null_;
set filter;
call execute(catx(' ', 'proc print data=', source, 'label;'));
call execute(catx(' ', 'where', filter, ';'));
call execute('run;');
run;
If you want to create datasets, then you should add a variable to "filter" naming the new dataset.
